Phillies third baseman Bohm leaves game against the Padres with a bruised rib cage

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm left Saturday’s game at San Diego with a bruise on his left rib cage two innings after he was hit by a pitch from Padres starter Yu Darvish.

Bohm was hit on the lower left back leading off the second inning. He advanced on a wild pitch and came around on a single by Nick Castellanos, and a throwing error on the play by Darvish to give the Phillies a 1-0 lead.

Bohm grounded out to end the third and was replaced in the bottom of the fourth by Edmundo Sosa, who hit a go-ahead, two-run single in the fifth to give the Phillies a 4-3 lead.
