PHILADELPHIA (AP)_ Alec Bohm hit a two-out, two-run single in the seventh inning to rally the Philadelphia Phillies over the Boston Red Sox 6-5 in the first game of a doubleheader.
Bohm continued his knack for clutch hits, coming through with Philadelphia down to its last strike.
The rookie drove in four runs with three hits, including his winner off Matt Barnes as the Phillies compete for their first playoff berth since 2011.
The Phillies started a run of five doubleheaders - all of them seven-inning games - between now and Sept. 22. That highlights a stretch of 19 games in 15 days, including a whopping seven straight games in Miami.
