Eagles’ Jalen Hurts and A.J. Brown take batting practice with the Phillies - Inquirer
A.J. Brown isn’t about to quit his day job, but the Eagles star wide receiver flashed his power in a guest batting practice session. Brown and Jalen Hurts dropped by Citizens Bank Park to take a few hacks, drawing an audience of Phillies players, including Bryce Harper and Kyle Schwarber. The righty-swinging Brown, drafted out of high school by the Padres in 2016, took coach Bobby Dickerson deep to left field. Even Schwarber, reigning NL home-run king, was impressed. “He’s a strong guy,” Schwarber said upon walking back into the clubhouse.
