Reds’ first baseman Joey Votto has entered the world of TikTok. While his fans are excited about his entry into the social media world, Votto posted a TikTok that received some backlash earlier this week.

The baseball player posted a TikTok video in which he dressed up in a Ron Weasley costume and dueted a dance from Doja Cat, who was also wearing a Harry Potter-inspired outfit.

The interpretation of Votto’s TikTok has some mixed opinions; some people found it entertaining, others not so much.

“Trying to get traded. Do you blame him?” tweeted former MLBer and current NESN Red Sox analyst Will Middlebrooks.

Shortly after posting the TikTok, Votto deleted it due to the many negative responses received.

Votto is in his 16th MLB season, all of which have been played with the Reds. He is a career .302 hitter with 331 career home runs and a .936 OPS.
