Daily News | Nick Castellanos leads the way as the Phillies beat Cubs again, 8-5
CHICAGO — Although Rob Thomson will manage the National League All-Stars, he won’t have a say over which players are on the team. A few years ago, MLB changed the selection process, taking it out of the All-Star managers’ hands.
Nola threw 97 pitches in five laborious innings, marking the first time since April 11 — 13 starts ago — that he didn’t complete six innings. The fifth inning, in particular, was a challenge. Staked to a six-run lead, he loaded the bases, walked in a run, and scrambled to get out of the jam with only two runs allowed.
Let there be no doubt, though, that Castellanos delivered the biggest blows, as he has for much of the season.
