After shocking the baseball world by signing with the Arizona Diamondbacks last week, superstar pitcher Zack Greinke was introduced as part of a highly anticipated press conference Friday.
The 32-year-old righty put a bow on his new, six-year, $206.5 million contract by donning a D-backs jersey for the first time, as seen in this GIF, courtesy of Major League Baseball:

Many expected Greinke to return to the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2016 and beyond after enjoying the best season of his career, but he instead decided to join forces with an NL West rival.
