In case you missed it, Team Italy pulled off a massive upset against Team USA on Tuesday night in the World Baseball Classic. Down 8-0 heading into the bottom of the sixth, the U.S. cut the deficit to 8-6 in the bottom of the ninth, but failed to complete the comeback. Bryce Harper, representing the tying run in the bottom of the eighth as a pinch hitter, flew out to end the inning.
