The Phillies fell behind by three runs and lost their starting pitcher to an early injury but dug in and came all the way back, rallying in the eighth inning to beat the Mariners. CSeidmanNBCS of NBCSPhilly has the recap:
Castellanos showed with his homer to right-center the kind of opposite-field power he became known for in Detroit, Chicago and Cincinnati. He went deep just 13 times last season but has driven the ball more consistently in the first month of 2023.
The Phils' bullpen was instrumental in the victory, pitching five scoreless innings. Luis Ortiz settled things down with strong work in the fifth and sixth, then Seranthony Dominguez, Craig Kimbrel and Jose Alvarado followed to close it out. Dominguez has made four scoreless appearances in a row with a fastball that is more than 2 mph harder than it was the first two weeks of the season. Kimbrel has struck out 11 without allowing a run over his last 6⅔ innings.
All of Seattle's damage came in the second inning after Walker needed just 10 pitches in a 1-2-3 first. With two outs, Cal Raleigh walked, AJ Pollock dribbled an infield single up the third-base line, Kolten Wong walked and former Phillie J.P. Crawford drilled a first-pitch grand slam to center field. Julio Rodriguez followed with a solo shot.
