Phillies' Nick Castellanos out of Saturday's lineup vs. Yankees with left knee injury
Both the Philadelphia Phillies and New York Yankees will be without their regular right fielders for Saturday's matchup at Yankee Stadium. Aaron Judge is out of the Yankees' lineup with a right elbow injury that's made it difficult for him to throw from the outfield. The team is currently waiting for imaging results. And while it doesn't appear to be as potentially serious, Nick Castellanos will sit out Saturday's game due to a left knee injury suffered in Friday's 12-5 win over the Yankees. Castellanos jammed his left knee while running toward the right field wall to make the final out, according to Phillies manager Rob Thomson. The Phillies' right fielder batted 2-for-5 in the Phillies' win and is hitting .270/.311/.434 with 23 doubles, 13 home runs and 56 RBI. He's third among Philadelphia's regulars in homers and second in RBI.
