Philadelphia Phillies slugger Nick Castellanos has made a unique name for himself within MLB. One of the league’s most esteemed hitters, it seems Casty has a knack for hitting the long ball at rather inopportune moments for those commentating on the game. The bizarre trend returned on Memorial Day, as Castellanos clubbed a solo shot off of Logan Webb while commentators discussed the sacrifice our veterans made for the United States.
At this point, it would almost be weird if Castellanos didn’t hit a homer during a serious announcement from the commentary team. We’re not sure why broadcasters still read out messages during Castellanos’ at-bats, as he frequently interrupts them by barreling a ball into the seats, much to the delight of Phillies fans.
