12-5, 3.04 ERA, 179 SO
Castillo is coming off arguably the worst start of his career, giving up a career-high eight earned runs on nine hits with three homers allowed over 4 1/3 innings. He was leaving his fastball over the middle of the plate too often and it got clobbered.

At Dodger Stadium
RHP
3-3, 4.27 ERA, 70 SO
