Stop! Thief!

easy as pie
Willy Taveras, do you have a license for those wheels?

The Colorado Rockies center fielder swiped a career-high five bases on catcher A.J. Pierzynski Saturday to help put a stop to the Chicago White Sox nine-game home winning streak with a 2-0 victory.

Incredibly, Taveras singled, doubled and walked, yet managed to avoid scoring as the Rockies went 1-for-15 with runners in scoring position, getting 2 unearned runs to win the game.

"I always have the green light," Taveras said. "So I just picked the right spot to run."
