Dodgers P Zack Greinke Celebrates HR vs. Phillies with Major Bat Flip

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Zack Greinke didn't bring his A-game to the mound against the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday, but there's no doubt that his bat game was on point.

In the top of the third inning, Greinke hit the first pitch from Phillies right-hander David Buchanan over the wall in left-center field. Judging by the bat flip, it looked like he knew it as soon as he hit it.

It looks like somebody has been watching Yasiel Puig.

The solo shot gave the Dodgers a 7-5 lead. It was Greinke's first home run of the season and the fifth of his 12-year career.
