Alec Bohm is on an absolute tear, and the rest of Major League Baseball is taking notice. Over his last 26 games, the Philadelphia Phillies’ third baseman has been nothing short of sensational, slashing an eye-popping .358/.466/.684 with 34 hits, 11 doubles, a triple, six home runs, 27 RBI, and 20 runs scored.
This scorching stretch has not only solidified Bohm’s place as one of the hottest hitters in baseball but also elevated his role as a key contributor in the Phillies’ red-hot lineup.
“He’s locked in — seeing the ball, driving it with authority, and coming through in the biggest moments,” manager Rob Thomson said. “This is the Alec Bohm we knew he could be.”
Bohm’s consistency at the plate, combined with his improved plate discipline — as shown by the elevated on-base percentage — has made him a nightly problem for opposing pitchers. Once viewed primarily as a contact hitter, Bohm’s recent surge in power numbers has transformed him into a legitimate middle-of-the-order threat.
His production has also come at a critical time, helping the Phillies maintain momentum in a tightly contested National League race. With Bryce Harper, Trea Turner, and Kyle Schwarber drawing heavy attention, Bohm’s emergence adds yet another dangerous dimension to Philadelphia’s offense.
Fans in Philadelphia are buzzing, and rightly so — Alec Bohm isn’t just hot. He’s becoming one of the most impactful bats in the league right now.
If he keeps this up, don’t be surprised if his name starts surfacing in All-Star and even MVP conversations.
