PHILADELPHIA — All-Star Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm did not start against Atlanta after injuring his left hand during an at-bat Thursday night. Bohm is batting .280 with 13 home runs and 89 RBIs for the Phillies and leads the National League with 44 doubles. Bohm left Philadelphia's 5-4 win over the Braves after the second inning with left hand discomfort. Bohm appeared to hurt his hand on an awkward swing in his first at-bat. Edmundo Sosa took over for Bohm. Manager Rob Thomson said Bohm had "a little inflammation" in his hand and would get treatment during the game. He did not say if Bohm would be available for Saturday's game.
