MLB Authenticated - Joey Votto DOUBLE To Jason Heyward Off Yu Darvish. Shipped with USPS Priority Mail plus Signature Required. On August 29, 2020, the Chicago Cubs visited the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ball Park for a doubleheader. Yu Darvish started Game 1 for the Cubs, while Trevor Bauer took the mound for the Reds. Tucker Barnhart led off the bottom of the third by striking out. Joey Votto then walked to the plate. DARVISH HELD THIS BALL IN HIS HAND!! He threw an 81 mph slider for a ball. (Yes, that means Victor Caratini also touched this ball!!) Darvish then threw a cutter, and VOTTO LACED THIS BALL TO RIGHT CENTERFIELD, WHERE JASON HEYWARD GRABBED IT AND THREW IT TO JAVIER BAEZ JUST AFTER VOTTO LEGGED OUT HIS FOURTH DOUBLE OF THE SEASON!! This ball was then retired. Nicholas Castellanos struck out. Jesse Winker walked. But then Eugenio Suarez struck out to end the inning. The Cubs went on to win 3-0 behind two home runs by Anthony Rizzo. (The Reds also got hits from Mike Moustakas, Shogo Akiyama, and Mark Payton. Bauer struck out five.) This ball is MLB Authenticated for Votto’s double to Heyward off Darvish. Please note that this ball does not come with a case. Thank you for purchasing!!
