A TCDB Surprise Card from mpdillard25!

Congratulations to Brandon Phillips and Joey Votto!

A big congratulations go out to Brandon Phillips and Joey Votto who each won a Gold Glove Award this year.

This was Phillips' third Gold Glove Award in the last four years (he also won in 2010 and 2008).  In case you don't watch the Reds on a daily basis, you've missed a TON of great plays by Phillips this year...here's one of them:

I also found this some ghetto recording of Brandon Phillips' video that the Reds played in the ballpark back when Phillips won his first Gold Glove.



Although not nearly as flashy as Phillips, Joey Votto also deserves some accolades.

Votto went from being a sub par defender (my family used to joke he would win the "lead glove" award) to a highly regarded defense man.

 Congratulations to both men, and may they both continue to be productive for the Reds all of next year...both in the field and at bat.  And yes, if they could somehow learn to pitch that'd be great too.  Thanks.
