Cincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto has provided quite a few souvenirs while hitting 28 home runs this season, including a league-leading 17 since the All-Star break.

Fifteen of Votto's 28 homers have come at Great American Ball Park, and the fan who caught No. 28 during the fifth inning of the Reds' 5-3 win against the Marlins on Friday night delivered one of the best grabs in addition to one of the most entertaining reactions.

The catch? Bare-handed. The celebration? Jamie Tartt, of course, just like the young fan in the left-field bleachers who Votto pointed to a night earlier.
