💨 Abstract

Nick Castellanos returned to the Philadelphia Phillies lineup after being benched for an inappropriate comment. Manager Rob Thomson indicated the benching was a one-day penalty, ending Castellanos' streak of 236 consecutive starts. Castellanos played well in his return, singling in four at-bats. Thomson suggested future defensive replacements may depend on the situation, but Castellanos is likely to start again. The Phillies are second in the NL East, with Castellanos hitting .278
