Nick Castellanos News: Five hits in doubleheader
Castellanos went 5-for-8 with a double and a run scored in Thursday's doubleheader split with Atlanta.
After going 4-for-4 in the opening game, Castellanos scored the Phillies' second run in the nightcap after smacking a one-out double in the eighth inning. The 33-year-old hasn't been hitting for much power -- he has just four home runs this year, and only one in his last 40 games. However, he's gone 8-for-18 (.444) in his previous five contests. Overall, Castellanos is slashing .288/.329/.409 with 29 RBI, 25 runs scored and a pair of stolen bases through 234 plate appearances this year.
