Can’t ask more from a hitter in this situation down 4-0 in the 4th inning with 2 outs and bases loaded than to come through with a bases-clearing Grand Slam to tie the game.
Clear the bases and tie the ballgame.

Joey Votto has a solid HOF resume of his own.
Joey Votto was a combined 12-for-23 (.522) versus Roy Halladay, Mike Mussina and Mariano Rivera, who will all be inducted into the Hall of Fame today. That’s the highest career batting average for any active player who faced all three of those pitchers.
