​Italy escaped a tense moment against Mexico after Sam Antonacci used a clever fake play during their World Baseball Classic matchup. The quick move confused Mexico runner Joey Ortiz and helped Italy end the third inning without damage. The unusual play happened after Ortiz reached base and took off on a fly ball from Jarren Duran. Antonacci pretended the ball was hit to him near second base, which led Ortiz to keep running even though the ball had already been caught.
