Wild Card Series Game 1 Goes to Vermont, Thanks to Castaneda
When he got to Vermont, Dennis Castaneda was just worrying about staying on the roster. Today, he was starring in the Wild Card Series.

The 20-year-old rookie right-hander shut out the visiting Youngstown Gremlins, 4-0, in a remarkable performance at Centennial Field. With the win, the Lake Monsters took a 1-0 lead in the best-of-7 Wild Card Series.

Though he did not get the decision, Castaneda did all he could to keep his team close, twirling a shutout through 7.1 innings, until Vermont eventually rallied past the Gremlins.

"There's nothing like the postseason," said Castaneda, "to ramp up the pressure."

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Centennial Field in Burlington.
