Castellanos became the first player in AL/NL history to record consecutive multihomer postseason games on Thursday night in Game 4 of the National League Division Series against the Braves.
Castellanos’ power surge against Atlanta right-hander Spencer Strider began in the fourth, when he jumped on a first-pitch hanging slider with one out to even the score at 1.
His sixth-inning solo shot with two outs not only extended Philadelphia’s lead to 3-1 but also chased Strider, sending the Citizens Bank Park crowd of 45,831 into a frenzy. Upon his return to the dugout, Castellanos received a curtain call and acknowledged the home fans, which included his son Liam, with a wave.
Castellanos had turned around Strider’s middle-middle 100 mph fastball, marking the fastest pitch he has taken deep in his career.
The adulation continued as Castellanos set out for right field for the top of the seventh, as he raised both of his arms in appreciation to the Phillies’ faithful.
