Phillies' 2 new sluggers show off their power with long blasts

Share

CLEARWATER, Fla. -- The Phillies continue to offer glimpses of what their opening day lineup will look like -- and the power that it could offer.

Newcomers Kyle Schwarber and Nick Castellanos are in the lineup together for the first time Monday in a game against the Baltimore Orioles.

Schwarber is batting leadoff; Castellanos cleanup.

Both smacked homers early in the game against Orioles righty Dean Kremer.

Castellanos followed a Bryce Harper single with a long homer to left in his first at-bat of the game.

Two innings later, Schwarber connected on a drive over the right field wall to give the Phils a 3-0 lead.

It's a sight Phillies fans hope to see a lot more of this season.

And if you're counting at home, the Phillies' home run total is at 10 over the last three days. Check back later to see if it rises.
