Joey Votto apologizes to tearful young Reds fan for ejection with signed ball
NY Post
Cincinnati Reds star Joey Votto sent a written apology on a signed baseball to a tearful young fan to make up for getting tossed in the first inning of Saturday’s game in San Diego.
Soon after Votto was ejected for arguing a third strike on a check-swing appeal, Reds fan Kristin Courtney tagged the Reds in a tweet showing her tearful daughter Abigail wearing a Votto t-shirt with the caption, “When it’s your first MLB game and your favorite player of all time gets thrown out of the game in the first inning” along with three crying emojis and the hashtag #WeLoveYouJoey. Courtney, who told MLB.com she grew up in Ohio but now lives in Los Angeles, soon after offered a happy update on what she called “the sad Abigail situation.”More Related News
