Puerto Rico rally in the eighth inning to eliminate Italy.
Despite a fast start by the Italians, Puerto Rico were able to pull the game back in the eight inning to book their place in the World Baseball Classic semi-finals.
The Italians scored off a three-run double mid way through the fourth inning to give them the lead.
Hoever, fielding mistakes and poor pitching was enough for Puerto Rico to get back into the game and ahead, as they moved ahead in the eighth inning, and they held on for the single run win.
