Joey Votto is back! And baseball is better. After almost a year on the sidelines, Cincinnati's favorite Canadian returned to the lineup for the red-hot Reds. Jake and Jordan celebrate his return and speak about Votto’s long-term relationship with the city. Then, the boys break down Victor Wembanyama’s wild first pitch and diagnose what went wrong (most things) with his delivery, debate over who is the best pitcher in the world right now, and say “Sorry To Your Mentions” to Anthony DiComo after he tweeted about "Blood for Mets Tickets."
