Reds: Luis Castillo shows why he should start potential Wild Card Game

The closest thing to a preview of the 2021 National League Wild Card Game was played at Great American Ball Park last night. The Cincinnati Reds defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers 3-1 and Luis Castillo was a big reason why the Redlegs emerged victorious.

Since the Reds emerged as a contender for the final Wild Card spot, there has been a lot of debate among the Cincinnati faithful about which starting pitcher should get the ball in a winner-take-all game in October.

After last night’s brilliant performance from Castillo, the right-hander has certainly asserted himself as the leader in the clubhouse.
