NEW YORK — Alec Bohm (fractured left rib) rejoined the Phillies in the Bronx on Sunday afternoon ahead of their loss to the Yankees. The third baseman remains on the 10-day injured list, but he’ll travel to Chicago for the club’s upcoming three-game series against the White Sox.
The Phillies (60-45) fell, 4-3, as New York avoided a series sweep at Yankee Stadium. Right-hander Zack Wheeler, Philadelphia’s ace, hit three batters in 5 2/3 innings and allowed four runs in a second-inning Yankees rally. Two home runs from Otto Kemp, playing third in Bohm’s absence, and another from Nick Castellanos did not provide enough offense for the Phillies.
