Votto must have gotten into the wacky weed before the game

He didn't even consider covering 1st base on a one hopper by Lynn to Jay Bruce in shallow RF. Then down 4-1 with a man on in the 5th he bunted. The TV guys questioned whether on not Bruce could have thrown Lynn out but I have no doubt he would have had Votto been at the bag. Lynn wasn't even close to 1st when Bruce came up ready to throw and he has a very good arm.

He must have switched it up to the ya-yo tonight.

I'd guess somebody of authority told him "we didn't give you $200 mil to bunt in that situation."
