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.

THE BOYS Final Season Comic-Con Footage Reveals Homelander's 'Safer, God-Fearing Nation' — GeekTyrant
The Boys made sure to leave its mark at San Diego Comic-Con, capping off the Gen V panel with the very first teaser for its fifth and final season. Shown to fans in Ballroom 20, the teaser didn't waste a second serving up bloody chaos, shocking moments, and some big surprises that the fans loved. The footage was a rapid-fire glimpse into the carnage we've come to expect. Among the standout moments: a mysterious new supe vomiting what looked like a bloody hairball onto someone else, and a gruesome scene involving a violent explosion inside a bathroom stall. So, it's still very much The Boys we know and love, unapologetically brutal and darkly hilarious. One of the more crazier moments came from Antony Starr's Homelander. In the teaser's most chilling line, he declares, 'This is a safer, more god-fearing nation,' his voice echoing like a sermon to an unseen crowd. After the events of Season 4, Homelander's grip on America has only tightened. He's essentially the power behind the White House now, the country is under martial law, and those who refuse to 'make America super again' are being hunted, including Butcher and his crew. Fans also got a few unexpected cameos. Seth Rogen, an executive producer on the series, pops up once again. Then Supernatural 's Jared Padalecki and Misha Collins also both make appearances in quick shots. This marks yet another reunion for showrunner Eric Kripke, who previously brought Jensen Ackles ( Soldier Boy ) and Jeffrey Dean Morgan (Joe Kessler) into the fold. Longtime Supernatural fans have been begging for more of their favorites to join The Boys, and Kripke delivered. At least one familiar face from Gen V makes the leap, with London Thor's Jordan Li spotted in the footage. That crossover shouldn't surprise anyone, given that Gen V characters Maddie Phillips and Asa Germann showed up in Season 4's finale as Homelander loyalists. The synergy between the two shows continues this fall when The Boys stars Erin Moriarty and Chace Crawford appear in Gen V Season 2. Returning cast members for this final chapter include Jack Quaid, Karl Urban, Jessie T. Usher, Tomer Capone, Karen Fukuhara, Laz Alonso, Nathan Mitchell, Colby Minifie, Cameron Crovetti, Susan Heyward, and Valorie Curry. New faces joining the chaos are Daveed Diggs and Paul Reiser. As for Seth Rogen's role? That remains to be seen, but given his track record of stealing scenes, fans are ready for whatever he brings. The endgame for The Boys is coming, but it's not arriving tomorrow. The fifth and final season will premiere sometime in 2026 on Prime Video.
