Phillies' Alec Bohm achieves rare hitting feat in Wild Card Series vs. Braves' Chris Sale
Bohm roped an RBI double in the first inning for the Phillies.
In Game 1 of the Wild Card Series, Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Chris Sale faced an impressive challenge from Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm. The veteran pitcher, known for his dominant fastball, surrendered an RBI double by Bohm, who took advantage of a high fastball over the catcher's head. Statcast revealed that Sale had only given up one hit all season on a fastball above the strike zone, a single to Bobby Witt Jr. on Opening Day.
This rare feat by Bohm against Sale underscores the difficulty many players face against Sale's formidable offering.
