Real Salt Lake goalie Nick Rimando, midfielder Kyle Beckerman and defender Tony Beltran have been called up to the U.S. national team.
The call-ups were announced Monday, less than a week before the U.S. will take on Costa Rica — and RSL forward Alvaro Saborio — in a World Cup qualifying match in Denver, Colo.
