Luis Castillo gets back on track, Reds beat Padres 4-2 to win series
Aaron Doster-USA TODAY Sports The Joe Nuxhall Memorial Honorary Star of the Game
The last game that Luis Castillo started was positively awful. The Cincinnati Reds right-hander had entered that game against the St. Louis Cardinals having only allowed more than 4 ER in a start once all season, and then proceeded to get pounded for 8 ER in just 4.1 IP, serving up a trio of dingers in the process.
With that for some context, it was wonderful to see him bounce right back to his dominant self today, as that’s exactly what he was against the San Diego Padres.
