Watch: Phillies' Nick Castellanos erases Braves lead again

The Atlanta Braves haven't had many leads in the National League Division Series versus the Philadelphia Phillies. When they do, Nick Castellanos erases them.

Three batters after Austin Riley gave the Braves only their third lead of the NLDS, the Phillies right fielder evened the score at 1-1 with his own blast. It's the second game in a row Castellanos has answered an early Braves lead with a dinger.

In Game 3, Atlanta got on the board first when Ozzie Albies drove home Ronald Acuna Jr. with a single. Three more Braves batted in the third before Castellanos led off the bottom of the third with a game-tying home run. Atlanta never led again.

Atlanta has only been ahead for a total of three innings in the entire series. Two of those were thanks to Riley, who hit homers in two of the games. Thursday, he blasted a home run off Ranger Suarez that bounced off a rail and into the seats to gives the Braves a 1-0 lead.

He also gave the Braves a lead in the eighth inning of Game 2 with a two-run blast.

Incredibly, Castellanos almost wiped out that lead as well. With Bryce Harper on first, only a spectacular play by center fielder Michael Harris II kept Castellanos' blast from being a game-tying double and turned it into a game-ending double play.

Riley is keeping the Braves hopes afloat. Unfortunately, Castellanos is always there to try and sink them.
