“Manny is a great talent,” Harper said. “He’s one of the best defenders in the game. He can swing the bat very well. He’s having a great year this year. I’m excited to be able to share the field with him. I think he’s an incredible ballplayer, and I look forward to seeing this series and how it goes.”

“It’s going to be fun. He brings an energy. He’s one of the best players in the game. I think, honestly, we’ve got the two best teams going up against each other, and it’s going to be a fun week for sure.” Three USA players made the all-tournament team: Harper, Machado and Brian Ragira.
