Yankees' Starlin Castro: Concludes star-caliber August with homer
Castro went 3-for-6 with his 19th homer -- a two-run shot -- in Wednesday's 13-inning win over the Royals.
Analysis:
With that, Castro put the finishing touches on a spectacular month of August during which he hit .313 with eight homers, 24 RBI and 18 runs. If you stuck with him against all odds through his mediocre first four months, you're reaping enormous benefits right now, as Castro seems to have finally found his old form again.
