Daily News | Phillies’ Darick Hall basking in afterglow of hitting two homers for his first MLB hits

Two days later, Darick Hall still hasn’t made much of a dent in the list of unanswered text messages in his phone.Hall made his major league debut Wednesday night — and batted cleanup, no less — after getting called up by the Phillies. The next night, he got his first two hits — both home runs — and lived out a lifelong dream at Citizens Bank Park.

It has been a whirlwind couple of days. Hall, who turns 27 next month, became the first Phillies player in 83 years, since LeGrant Scott in 1939, to bat fourth in his major league debut. No player had done so for any team since Kris Bryant for the 2015 Chicago Cubs. After going 0-for-4 with one strikeout in his first game, Hall took Atlanta Braves reliever Jesús Cruz deep in the fourth inning Thursday night. His second homer came against Mike Ford, a first baseman who pitched for the Braves in the eighth inning of the Phillies’ 14-4 rout.
