Team USA faces the Colorado Rockies on Wednesday in Scottsdale, Arizona, the squad’s last tune-up game before opening World Baseball Classic group play on Friday in Houston.
The Americans clobbered the San Francisco Giants 15-1 in their first exhibition game on Tuesday. Alex Bregman and Roman Anthony homered for Team USA in a contest started by NL Cy Young winner Paul Skenes, who gave up one run in three innings.
U.S. manager Mark DeRosa made some changes to his lineup to face the Rockies, with Will Smith, Gunnar Henderson and Ernie Clement in the starting nine. Left-hander Ryan Yarbrough will start for Team USA, while fellow southpaw Kyle Freeland – who played in the 2023 WBC – takes the mount for the Rockies to get things underway.
