Episode Details

Joey Votto, baseball’s beloved former Reds legend, is back in the game—but this time behind the mic. After a 17-year career etched into franchise lore, he’s now calling games for MLB Network and NBC, bringing his deep knowledge and firsthand experience to the broadcast booth. From Wrigley Field to the dugout, Votto’s still connected to the game, mentoring young players like Sal Stewart while sharpening his broadcasting chops. He admits it’s challenging—and fun—to translate his playing instincts into commentary, especially when his old team isn’t firing on all cylinders. With insights on evolving pitching, hitting, and even AI’s role in player evaluation, Votto isn’t chasing coaching gigs—he’s eyeing a full-time exec role if it’s tough enough. The game’s heartbeat? Still in his voice.
