SEATTLE – As a pack of reporters descended upon him on Wednesday afternoon, Welington Castillo’s attention was piqued by what he saw on the TV in the visitors’ clubhouse at Safeco Field.
“Oh, that’s me,” Castillo said jokingly. “Oh, that’s me again.”
Castillo clobbered a pair of home runs off vaunted right-hander Felix Hernandez, and the Diamondbacks cruised to an 8-2 win on Wednesday afternoon, giving them a surprisingly easy series sweep of the Seattle Mariners.
BOX SCORE: Diamondbacks 8, Mariners 2
The win was the Diamondbacks’ fifth consecutive win and their sixth in their past seven games.
