Salty smacks 2-run HR in loss to Yanks

Following up on a career-high 21 homers last year, Castro launched his first long ball of the spring in the second, a three-run home run off Brett Oberholtzer that came with Matt Holliday and Chris Carter on the bases.

Oberholtzer was charged with three runs on two hits in two innings. The left-hander walked two and struck out none. Holliday added a run-scoring groundout facing Bo Schultz in the third inning, and Brett Gardner knocked an RBI single off Leonel Campos in the fifth.

Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez showed off his plus throwing arm, catching two runners attempting to steal second base in the third inning.
