INFIELDER CASTRO PERFORMING WELL AS DODGERS SUB

Los Mochis native Juan Castro has been a key infield reserve this year for the Los Angeles Dodgers, who have the National League’s best record at 69-45. Castro has hit .319 with a homer in 36 games for the Dodgers while playing three positions after starting the season at Class AAA Albuquerque of the Pacific Coast League.

The 36-year-old Castro was signed by the Dodgers out of Mexico in 1991, and has played all or part of the past 15 big league seasons with Los Angeles, Cincinnati and Baltimore. He’s a career .231 hitter with 36 homers in 1,022 MLB games.
