Cincinnati Reds pitcher Luis Castillo selected to play in second MLB All-Star Game
When Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Luis Castillo was named to the All-Star team in 2019, it was one of the first times he had accomplished one of his big goals for his MLB career.
At the time, Castillo was only in his second full season in MLB. Since he earned that recognition in 2019, Castillo has become the Reds’ ace, pitched in the playoffs and grown into a different role as the longest-tenured Reds’ pitcher.
On Sunday, Castillo learned that he was heading to the 2022 All-Star Game. Now a six-year veteran, the honor carried a different type of meaning.
