Cincinnati Reds legend Joey Votto announced his retirement on Wednesday night.

In 2023, I was lucky enough to attend Votto's last home game as a Red. In Votto-like fashion, he hit a single back up the middle as the crowd was chanting his name.

Reds Manager David Bell lifted him from the game for a pinch runner and it was one of the most incredible moments you'll ever see. Votto gave the fans a curtain call and his postgame interview was even better.
