Cincinnati Reds 1B Joey Votto was plunked on the right leg by Washington Nationals pitcher Ryan Madson in a game in the nation’s capital on August 4th. In 29 PA across 8 games since that time, Votto has both been noticeably limping and also only cobbled together a .227/.379/.273 line in 29 PA, and on Friday the Reds finally placed their star 1B on the 10-day DL.
