Alec Bohm hits a pair of 3
PHILAELPHIA (AP) — Alec Bohm’s first homer of the game was hit the opposite way into the right-field seats. His second homer was lofted high into the left-center section.
Both Bohm bombs counted the same for the Phillies — three-run shots that gave the Phillies a 6-0 lead through three innings.
They’re also a sneak peek at the power the Phillies think they can get out out Bohm on a more consistent basis.
Bohm provided a needed dose of pop on the same night Philadelphia right-hander Spencer Turnbull took a no-hitter into the seventh inning. Turnbull lost his bid on a one-out single but won the game, 7-0 against the Chicago White Sox on Friday night.
“I just want to hit as many balls as hard as I can and stay through the middle of the field,” Bohm said. “If they end up being homers, great. If they end up being doubles, cool.”
More like double the fun. He had hit six straight solo home runs dating to last season before his first three-run homer.
