Batting in the eighth inning with the Yankees down a run, the left-handed hitter skied a hanging slider from Phillies reliever Seth Johnson over the right-field wall for a game-tying homer.
A day later, Shewmake was among eight non-roster position players reassigned to the Yanks’ minor-league camp on Sunday.
Also cut was utility players Marco Luciano and Ernesto Martinez Jr.; outfielders Duke Ellis and Yanquiel Fernandez; infielders Jonathan Ornelas and Zack Short; and catcher Miguel Palma.
The Yankees now have 47 players on their spring training roster and need to get down to 26 before their March 25 season opener in San Francisco.
