Phillies pitcher Cole Hamels gave up two first-inning home runs before settling down in his start on Saturday.
Jose Reyes hit Hamels' first pitch of the game for a home run to left. Two batters later, Jose Bautista hit a 3-1 pitch to straightaway center.
Those were the only two runs Hamels would allow in 3 and two thirds innings of work. He allowed a total of five hits, walked none and struck out five.
The outing was an improvement over Hamels' last start, when he gave up five runs in two innings.
Hamels had his largest pitch count of the spring, throwing 72 pitches before leaving in the fourth.
"Just being able to go out there and feel fresh even with that increase, I didn't even notice it," Hamels said, per MLB.com's Adam Berry. "I guess that's a good thing."
Hamels has a 7.59 ERA this spring.
