In between late-night celebrations at Xfinity Live!, watching his dad, Nick, hit homers at Citizens Bank Park, and homeschool, 10-year-old Liam Castellanos had time to design a T-shirt for charity.

Proceeds from the “Liam’s Battle Cry” shirt sold by In the Clutch Apparel will go to the Kisses for Kyle Foundation, a Willow Grove-based charity that provides support for children battling cancer.

The shirt retails for $30 and features a hand-drawn portrait of the miniature Castellanos wearing a bandana with illustrations of his dad, Bryce Harper, Bryson Stott, and Brandon Marsh on it.

“[I’m] very proud. For sure. You know, any time that you’re able to give back, and it just means a lot also that he’s steering it,” Nick Castellanos said at a Phillies news conference Monday.

Liam revealed the shirt in a video alongside Phillies batboy Adam Crognale posted to X by his grandmother — and Nick’s mom — Michelle — on Sunday night.

Crognale, a childhood cancer survivor, said in the video that Kisses for Kyle helped him directly while he was undergoing treatment.
