Watch: Nick Castellanos robs home run with incredible catch

Nick Castellanos can’t miss right now.

With Aaron Nola already having allowed a game-tying home run to Jeremy Peña in the bottom of the first inning, it appeared that the Houston Astros were going to take a 2-1 lead over the Philadelphia Phillies when Alex Bregman drove a ball to deep right field. Castellanos had other ideas.

While he’s never been known for his defense, Castellanos entered the night with five outfield assists already on his 2023 resume. Now, he has a home run robbery to pair with those assists.
