Philadelphia Phillies right fielder Nick Castellanos has never struggled to knock out homers, and he notched his latest swing for the fences in spring training on Saturday against the Minnesota Twins.
However, to Castellanos’ son Liam, Saturday’s game was another opportunity to get to spend some time with his dad.
The younger Castellanos helped out the Phillies as their bat boy during the game, and the elder Castellanos playfully motioned for his son to come get the bat after he hit the home run.
It was an adorable moment between the two Castellanos, as a dad humorously reminded his son to not forget his job for the day.

The young Castellanos became a fixture during the Phillies’ playoff run last season as he cheered on his dad in the stands, and it looks like the Castellanos haven’t skipped a beat in keeping baseball a very fun family affair. We’re sure Liam can be the spring training bat boy any time.
