Many thought Reds veteran slugger Joey Votto wouldn’t actually buy teammate Zack Cozart a donkey if he made the All-Star team.
But they thought wrong.
Votto, who is known for being a fan of donkeys, promised to Cozart that if he made the All-Star team, he’d buy him a donkey.
And recently, the talk resurfaced, as Votto attempted to campaign for Cozart to make the team, which you can see in this photo.

If that doesn't get you to #VoteCozart, then nothing will.

Well, now that he made it, Votto is making good on his promise, which Zach Buchanan of the Cincinnati Enquirer reported.
“He doesn’t have a phone. He only uses a pager,” Votto said. “He’s kind of in that black market business. He’ll see it’s time to bring that donkey to Cincinnati.”
He continued:
“The donkey’s been in the works for a while,” Votto said. “We’ve got one taken care of.”
Yeah, we’re going to need photos to serve as proof.
