Tension was mounting during the World Baseball Classic before Team USA and Team Dominican Republic matched up Sunday night. The two clubs seemed to be on a collision course this tournament, and it exemplified a clash of the Titans in the WBC Semifinals. There were sure to be hard feelings no matter how the decision fell, but the rising heat specifically showed up on a play made by Philadelphia Phillies' first baseman Bryce Harper.
Team USA was holding a slim one-run lead in the bottom of the ninth inning, facing Tampa Bay Rays' slugger Junior Caminero.
