Votto went 3-3 with his first major league homer! I still think that Bruce should have got the call as well.

I disagree. Bruce would not get much playing time since the Reds have 3 full-time outfield starters right now. Josh Hamilton needs to continue to play every day, and I don't think you can bench Dunn or Griffey in order to play a rookie. Also, I believe that sitting the bench to pinch-hit with an occasional spot start could actually hinder his development. Don't rush the kid, he's not even spent a full year in AAA yet! His time will come soon...
