Star-laden lineups clash in Team USA-Dominican showdown

The most intriguing game of the baseball season -- at least until the playoffs start -- takes place Saturday night at Marlins Park in Miami.

If you’re not buying into the intrigue for a game played on March 11 in a tournament that doesn’t feature NCAA teams, at least consider this: There may be more talent on the field for this game than any other this season.
