Phillies Bench All-Star Alec Bohm for NLDS Game 2

Philadelphia manager Rob Thomson seeks to energize the lineup by starting Edmundo Sosa at third base against the Mets.

Alec Bohm, who struggled with a .170 batting average in September, was benched for Game 2 of the NLDS against the Mets.
Manager Rob Thomson cited the need for 'energy' in the lineup, opting for Edmundo Sosa, known for his dynamic playstyle.
Bohm's frustrations were evident after going 0-for-4 in Game 1, where he visibly slammed his helmet in the eighth inning.
Despite his benching, Bohm is expected to return for Game 3, facing Mets left-hander Sean Manaea.
The Phillies' offense, including high-profile players like Trea Turner, has struggled, prompting lineup adjustments.
