I just saw something I've never seen and probably the smartest play from the Mets in my lifetime.

Sac Fly scores Dom Smith. JD Davis remains at first. The Dbacks decide to appeal Smith leaving 3rd early and when Ollie Perez steps off to appeal, JD Davis breaks for 2nd. The Dbacks were confused, but the ball is in play when Perez steps off the rubber and Davis was going to either take 2nd in the confusion (which is what happened) or if Perez had decided to go after Davis and get him out on the steal attempt then Dom Smith's run counts and can no longer be appealed.
