Phillies' Nick Castellanos Sidelined with Left Knee Injury, Day-to-Day

Philadelphia Phillies right fielder Nick Castellanos was out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the New York Yankees due to a left knee injury. The injury occurred during Friday's 12-5 victory when he jammed his knee hitting the outfield wall while making the final out. Phillies manager Rob Thomson confirmed that Castellanos is day-to-day, stating he came in sore but hopes to have him back soon. Castellanos, 32, had a 2-for-5 performance in Friday's game and has been a significant offensive contributor this season, batting .270/.311/.434 with 23 doubles, 13 home runs, and 56 RBI, ranking third among regulars in homers and second in RBI. His absence allowed manager Rob Thomson to adjust the lineup, giving Johan Rojas and Edmundo Sosa opportunities.
