Reds slugger Joey Votto is back in the lineup Thursday in Atlanta after getting a night off. He is batting third and playing first base.
The hope is that the one-game absence will get Votto back on track. He had been one of the hottest hitters in baseball before a 2-for-20 slide that dropped his batting average from .386 to .312.
He is, however, having a renaissance year in regard to power. He has seven home runs in 77 at-bats after nailing just six in 220 at-bats in 2014.
