Greinke catches Rockies napping with 5th career stolen base

MLB.com

Madison Bumgarner may have the bat, but Zack Greinke has the legs.

With the Arizona Diamondbacks up 4-3 on the Colorado Rockies in the fourth inning on Thursday, no one was holding Greinke at first. So without hesitation, he took off for second on the first pitch and he was safe by a mile.

For Greinke, a shortstop in high school, it was his first swiped bag of the season and the fifth of his career - the most among active pitchers.
