Edmundo Sosa is stepping in at third base for the Phillies in Game 2 of the NLDS against the Mets, replacing Alec Bohm, who has been struggling at the plate. Sosa, described as an "energy guy" by manager Rob Thomson, is expected to energize the team despite his own lackluster performance this season, including a .191 batting average against right-handed pitching. Thomson believes Sosa's presence can positively impact the team's overall energy, especially after a disappointing showing in Game 1. Sosa will bat eighth in the lineup and has a history of thriving in postseason play.
