WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. — Going yard for the sixth time in a Chicago Cubs uniform, right fielder Nicholas Castellanos smoked a solo shot at BB&T Ballpark at Historic Bowman Field on Sunday. The dinger put the Cubs on the scoreboard in the 2019 MLB Little League Classic.
Taking Pittsburgh Pirates starter Mitch Keller deep, Castellanos incited the crowd with a shot over the wall in left-center. Marking Castellanos' 17th home run of the season, the bomb put the Cubs up 1-0 in the top of the first.
