Joey Votto

After launching a two-run homer in his first at-bat during Thursday's series finale between the Cincinnati Reds and the Chicago Cubs, Joey Votto became the first player in franchise history to hit longballs in six straight games. Over the course of his streak, the Toronto, Canada, native has launched eight home runs and powered the Reds to wins in four of their last six contests. Reflecting on the record, Votto stated, "Homer-wise, this is the best stretch I've been on in a short period of time."
