Records rare steal Renfroe went 1-for-4 with a double, a walk and a stolen base in Thursday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Giants.
Impact Renfroe was 0-for-1 in stolen base attempts this year before swiping second as part of a double-steal in the first inning. Considering this was his 14th career steal in seven years, the outfielder shouldn't be expected to run often. He's gone 1-for-8 with a walk in two games since he returned from a calf injury that cost him a few weeks. Renfroe is slashing .243/.296/.481 with 13 home runs, 27 RBI, 27 runs scored and 10 doubles through 56 contests.

Makes return from IL The Brewers reinstated Renfroe (calf) from the 10-day injured list ahead of Tuesday's game in Minnesota.
Impact Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reported over the weekend that Renfroe was unlikely to make it back from the IL until the Brewers' final series before the All-Star break in San Francisco, but the 30-year-old will end up returning to action a couple days earlier than anticipated. He didn't require a minor-league rehab assignment while he was on the shelf, as the Brewers were evidently encouraged enough by how Renfroe's strained left calf responded to running and outfield work. Renfroe is expected to settle into an everyday role in the outfield, leaving fewer opportunities available for the likes of Jace Peterson, Keston Hiura and Jonathan Davis.
