Bartolo Colon is a joy to watch.
Trailing 4-3 in the sixth inning Thursday, Atlanta Braves catcher A.J. Pierzynski attempted to steal second on the New York Mets starter.
However, the rotund right-hander ran off the mound and chased Pierzynski down to record the unassisted putout to end the inning.
