Great Britain’s Trayce Thompson made a spectacular catch to rob Team USA’s Will Smith of a potential home run during their World Baseball Classic Pool B game on March 7, 2026, at Daikin Park in Houston, despite Great Britain losing 9-1. Thompson, who has MLB experience and is the brother of NBA star Klay Thompson, played for Great Britain due to his father’s Bahamian heritage. The game saw Great Britain initially hold off Team USA until the fifth inning when the U.S. took the lead. This loss followed Great Britain’s earlier defeat to Mexico, leaving them still seeking their first win in the tournament.
