I completely understand that you’re the hometown announcer and you’re always going to stick up for your guys in almost every situation, but this was not one of those times because all it does is make you look dumb.
Why? Well, I don’t care what team you root for, the Cubs, White Sox, Reds, Brewers, Cardinals, it doesn’t matter, everyone knows Joey Votto is a psycho. So, when anyone gets in his face and there’s even a threat of an altercation, you’re always going to take Votto in a fight.
Well, during Thursday night’s game between the Reds and Brewers, Votto got pissed off at a missed call (he was right by the way and almost always is on balls and strikes) and he was chirping the umpire about it. Brewers’ catcher Erik Kratz then said something to Votto and the two players started arguing.
The benches cleared and on the Brewers’ broadcast, their analyst said he’d take Kratz in this one. hahahahaha, OK buddy, good luck with that.

"I got Kratz in this one."

I don’t think there’s a more accurate reaction than this.
Joey Votto would've been charged with murder if this continued. https://t.co/PekqxEEbC8

Joey Votto will fuck you up.
Oh, and an underrated part of this video is Milwaukee’s Jesus Aguilar not wanting any part of the bullshit.
