Mark Appel wore this Team USA jersey during the 2015 MLB Futures Game during All-Star Weekend. The rangy pitcher, then with the Houston Astros, pitched the fifth inning of this 10-1 Team USA victory. Appel allowed one hit and no runs in his relief appearance. The first overall pick of the 2013 MLB Amateur Draft, Appel currently plies his trade for the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs, the AAA team of the Philadelphia Phillies.
