Clutch hitting for Bohm again. Bohm with 4 RBIs today. 3 hits.

Pretty hard to believe that the Phillies blow a nice lead again and then come back to win it.

This win and the one yesterday are huge for the season.

Neris gets the win.

Didi starting to wake up at the plate? Would be nice to see

Didi was 2 for 3 with a walk, scored 3 and drove in one, so we cannot complain about this game. We do need him to continue and to have Segura continue to hit (one hit today, but huge yesterday). But we really need a hot Harper and Realmuto over the next couple weeks.

How good is Bohm? People were saying that he was Kris Bryant lite. He may be as good as Bryant or better. Unlike Bryant, I think that he will field 3B to hold that position. He could be the best player in the field that the Phillies have groom since the Utley-Rollins-Howard days.

That SB actually helped win the game.

Exciting inning, nice to be on the upside of a blown save

I'm not seeing evidence yet that Bohm is a good 3B, but that doesn't mean he can't become one. And Bryant is still a 3B (115 games there in 2019, 16 out of 20 this year). That is less about him as other people on the roster (and the Cubs, like the Dodgers, and the Phillies for that matter, like to move guys around).

Time will tell, we thought Franco was gonna make some all-star teams too. And Brown and Herrera actually did. Bohm certainly seems more likely to hit for a long time. And if he hits like Bryant did in his prime he'll stay at 3B for his prime.
