Never saw this before.
Mets vs. Diamondbacks, Mets batting, with runners on 1st and 3rd. McCann hits a short sacrifice fly to left field, and throw is a little off the line so runner coming home from third is called safe. Runner stays on 1st.
Arizona decides they want to appeal the play, because they think the runner left third early.
Pitcher takes ball, steps off mound, and throws to third for the appeal. But as soon as the pitcher steps off the mound, JD Davis (runner on first) breaks for second, walking the last 10 feet because he wants to draw a throw and be thrown out, preventing the appeal.
Instead the third baseman steps on the third. Everybody called safe.
