"It was pretty miraculous," Longoria said. "I've experienced a lot of things in this game and that was like nothing I'd ever experienced."
Longoria did not play in the split-squad game against the Pirates on Saturday, but manager Joe Maddon said he may make his spring debut Tuesday against Houston.
"There's no rush," Maddon said.
Longoria missed 13 weeks in 2012 due to a hamstring injury.
