Watch: Beltre pretends to steal fan's foul ball

One fan's souvenir nearly cost him an altercation with Texas Rangers third baseman Adrian Beltre.

Or so he thought, anyways.

Beltre gave a Rangers fan a bit of a spook during the seventh inning of Sunday's game, when he chased a foul pop fly into the shallow left field stands, and reached for the fan's newly acquired ball.

Following a few moments of sheer terror, the fan realized Beltre was joking and went back to celebrating his new souvenir.

Beltre the best.
