Castellanos goes deep twice in 7-5 Salem win

Chris Graham

salem red soxPedro Castellanos blasted two homers to push the Salem Red Sox over the Myrtle Beach Pelicans 7-5 Saturday night at Haley Toyota Field.

Castellanos hit a two-run homer in the first, and added a three-run shot in the fourth that put the Sox up 7-4 at the time.

The Salem bullpen took over from there. Andrew Schwaab picked up his ninth save, striking out the side in the ninth.

Castellano’s two-homer performance makes him the fourth Sox player this season with a multi-homer game. He joins Dylan Hardy, Marcus Wilson and Edgar Corcino in the feat.
