In game No. 105 of the season, Rob Thomson threw out a tinkered lineup for the Phillies' series finale against the Yankees.

J.T. Realmuto followed the Yankees' ninth error in four games with a tiebreaking, three-run drive in a four-run seventh inning, lifting the Phillies over New York 12-5 on Friday night.

Manager Rob Thomson later provided an update, revealing that Castellanos is participating in pre-game running drills as a final test before resuming game action. Through 102 games this season, Castellanos has remained a steady contributor in the everyday lineup, hitting .270 with a .745 OPS, 13 homers and 56 RBIs.

It hasn’t been easy for the Yankees since the All-Star break. They split the first six games, and they left Toronto on Wednesday with a bad taste in their mouths because they didn’t gain any ground on the first-place Blue Jays in the American League East race.

The hard-hitting Philadelphia Phillies delivered one blow that they could have done without Saturday during their 9-4 road win over the New York Yankees.

After the bullpen gave up 10 earned runs in a 12–5 loss, the team optioned right-hander Scott Effross and infielder Jorbit Vivas to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, opening two roster spots ahead of Saturday’s game at Yankee Stadium.

Giancarlo Stanton hit a two-run home run in the seventh inning and newly-acquired third baseman Ryan McMahon made a spectacular diving backhand stop and long throw for an out and got his first hit in pinstripes.

Third baseman Edmundo Sosa was elbowed in the back by Brandon Marsh in a collision while catching Jazz Chisholm Jr.'s seventh-inning popup.
