PITTSBURGH — Cincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto has made a name for himself over the years not only with his bat but with his unique way of interacting with fans.
On Monday in Pittsburgh, during the fourth inning of a game the Reds lost 5-1 to the Pirates, Votto saw a fan in the stands near the Reds dugout with a shirt reading, "Votto for President."
This is Kyle. Joey liked his "Votto for President" shirt so much that he brokered a trade.

Only one problem: Joey Votto can't run for president. So he signed it, "More like Prime Minister!"

According to the Reds, Votto liked it so much, he traded the fan a jersey for the T-shirt and signed the jersey, "More like prime minister." Votto is from Toronto.
