Alec Bohm homers twice, Phillies handle Rockies
May 9, 2026; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA; Philadelphia Phillies infielder Alec Bohm (28) hits a home run against the Colorado Rockies in the third inning at Citizens Bank Park. Mandatory Credit: Kyle Ross-Imagn Images Alec Bohm hit two home runs and drove in four runs in his return to the lineup as the host Philadelphia Phillies evened the weekend series with a 9-3 win over the Colorado Rockies on Saturday evening.
Kyle Schwarber added the go-ahead three-run home run in the third as the Phillies lineup tagged Rockies starter Kyle Freeland (1-4) for seven runs (six earned) in five innings.
Willi Castro had a home run and Kyle Karros hit a two-run double for Colorado, which had won 9-7 in 11 innings on Friday.
A two-day break served Bohm well, as the third baseman led off the third with his first home run since Opening Day on March 26 to tie the game at 1-1. Castro’s solo shot for the Rockies in the second inning had opened the scoring.
Bryson Stott and Trea Turner followed Bohm’s homer with singles and Schwarber cleared the bases with his second home run in as many nights to give Philadelphia a 4-1 lead.
Adolis Garcia doubled with one out and Edmundo Sosa brought him home with an RBI single to complete the Phillies’ five-run outburst.
Colorado responded immediately in the fourth. Karros’ double with two outs scored Troy Johnston (single) and Jake McCarthy (walk) and reduced the Philadelphia advantage to 5-3.
Bohm made it the fifth multi-homer game of his career with another solo blast in the bottom of the frame.
Phillies starter Aaron Nola was left with no decision after being pulled with the tying run at the plate with two outs in the fifth. He allowed three runs with six hits and two walks, striking out four.
Tim Mayza (1-1) relieved Nola and got out of the jam.
Colorado’s defense was to blame for the Phillies’ run in the fifth. Garcia went from first to third after shortstop Castro booted a grounder and then scored on Brandon Marsh’s sacrifice fly.
Bohm capped off a 3-for-4 night at the plate with a two-run double in the eighth.
Philadelphia first baseman Bryce Harper exited after the first inning with a migraine. He was replaced by Felix Reyes, who went 0-for-4.
The first pitch of the game was initially set for 6:05 local time but was delayed approximately 25 minutes due to inclement weather in the area.

Mark Hubbard (64) seizes 1-shot edge at Myrtle Beach
Feb 28, 2026; Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, USA; Mark Hubbard plays his shot from the first tee during the third round of the Cognizant Classic golf tournament. Mandatory Credit: Reinhold Matay-Imagn Images Mark Hubbard fired a 7-under-par 64 on Saturday to claim a 1-shot edge over England’s Aaron Rai through three rounds of the ONEflight Myrtle Beach Classic.
The 36-year-old Hubbard, who has yet to win a PGA Tour title and hasn’t finished in the top 20 this year, reeled off four straight birdies late in his round to push to 16 under 197 heading into the final round of this opposite-field event.
“I felt like I had some of the best ball control I’ve had all season, maybe my whole career today,” Hubbard said. “But I felt like I was kind of leaving a few out there in the middle of the round.”
After posting birdies on just two of his first 10 holes, Hubbard recorded a birdie at No. 11 before pouring it on with birdies on Nos. 14 through 17.
“I think Mark a couple of weeks ago would have gotten pretty frustrated and turned a 64 into a 68,” Hubbard said. “I just stayed really patient and just tried and kept hitting good shot after good shot and eventually the putts started going in.”
Rai, who held a one-shot lead entering Saturday’s play, shrugged off his lone bogey at No. 8 by reeling off four consecutive birdies to start his back nine. He finished at 5 under for the day.
“Had a great section in the middle of the round,” Rai said. “Made a few birdies back-to-back, which really kind of got things going. Yeah, really pleased overall.”
Kevin Roy pulled within two shots of Hubbard with a bogey-free 65. Beau Hossler and Mac Meissner tied for the day’s lowest round with 64s to remain three shots shy of Hubbard. Brandt Snedeker (67) joined them at 13 under.
Brooks Koepka registered an eagle at the par-5 15th on his way to a 64. He shares seventh place with Japan’s Keita Nakajima (67) and South Africa’s Christiaan Bezuidenhout (68), five shots out of the lead.
“I feel like I’m striking it as good as I ever have, driving it as good as I ever have,” said Koepka, who posted a 7 under 29 on the back nine. “If I can continue to do that, then I’m going to be very pleased where I’m at for a while.”
