If there's one thing baseball players like more than baseball, it's food! (Probably. Actually, that might just be us).
Anyway, for some reason, maybe because of a special deal at the Canada-owned Tim Horton's -- as Marlins announcers pointed out -- an anonymous Marlins player gifted donuts to Canadian Joey Votto when the team arrived for a series in Cincinnati on Monday. Judging by this mysterious interaction during Wednesday's game, our guess is it was Ichiro:
Votto, a very generous man in his own right, returned the favor by having 51 pizzas delivered to the Marlins clubhouse and stacked in front of Ichiro's locker on Thursday. A solid pregame snack before the Reds' eventual 5-4 win. Check out the entire, heartwarming story in the main video above.
