The unsung hero
Castellanos hit the winning hit, but Bryce Harper ensured his final at-bat would be important.
Harper got the Phillies back in the game with a two-run homer in the sixth inning, then drew walks in the eighth and ninth innings, leaving runners on and opening up opportunities for Castellanos and Bryson Stott.
