PHOENIX — Alec Bohm is 4-for-9 with a home run and a double in his first two games back from the injured list.

A brief pause to his season might be exactly what he needed. He missed the last 10 games prior to the Arizona series with left shoulder inflammation. It wasn’t a new injury.

“It’s been kind of off and on for most of the season,” Bohm said.

When Bohm went on the injured list in July with a rib fracture, he did not swing a bat for the week. The left shoulder improved with rest, and Bohm thought he could manage it through the end of the year.
