In the bottom of the first inning, Bryce Harper worked the count full and deposited a single into right field. Clean-up hitter and new Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos followed Harper by crushing the first pitch he saw for a two-run home run, his first in a Phillies uniform.

In his spring debut on Sunday, Castellanos went 1-for-2 with a single. He was in the on-deck circle for Harper’s two-home run game. This time, Castellanos drove Harper in with a moonshot of his own.
