Alec Bohm homers twice as Phillies' right-handed hitters improve vs. lefties
PHILADELPHIA — When Edmundo Sosa jogged to left in the first inning Saturday, he wore a glove bearing the name “Kyle Schwarber” in embroidery. It was the best he could do after resuming outfield work for the first time this season.Given the Philadelphia Phillies’ struggles against left-handed pitching, interim manager Don Mattingly did not have much of a choice but to play Sosa (.278/.316/.333 against lefties in 2026, five career appearances in left field) to effectively maximize right-handed hitters in the lineup. Sosa went 1-for-3 against Rockies lefty Kyle Freeland, whom the Phillies tagged for 10 hits and six earned runs en route to a 9-3 win at Citizens Bank Park.Advertisementالمصدر: The Athletic | Source: The Athletic
