May 5 (UPI) -- Cincinnati Reds first baseman Joey Votto is expected to miss up to a month after suffering a broken left thumb in the team's 1-0 win over the visiting Chicago White Sox on Wednesday.
Votto sustained the injury after Dallas Keuchel hit him with a pitch in the fourth inning. Votto initially remained in the game, but Kyle Farmer eventually replaced him at first base in the sixth.
