Cincinnati Reds' Luis Castillo strikes out two of four batters in All-Star Game outing

As Luis Castillo has done all season, he made it look easy when he took the Dodger Stadium mound in the top of the fifth inning in Tuesday’s All-Star Game.

Castillo, selected to play in the Midsummer Classic for the second time in his career, struck out two of the four batters he faced in 14 pitches.
