First baseman Bryce Harper had a short-lived return to the Philadelphia Phillies’ lineup and is set to sit out Wednesday night’s game against Los Angeles due to a bruised left hand. Harper, who had missed the previous nine games with a strained left hamstring, sustained the hand injury during Tuesday’s game against the Dodgers. All-Star third baseman Alec Bohm shifted to first base, and Edmundo Sosa started at third base in Harper’s absence.
Harper, hitting .299 with 20 homers and 58 RBIs, has been a significant player for the Phillies, who currently hold the best record in baseball. Despite the injury, Harper remains a top performer in the National League in various categories.
Phillies manager Rob Thomson stated that All-Star right-hander Zack Wheeler was experiencing some soreness but had no structural damage following an MRI on his back. Wheeler left Tuesday night’s game after five innings due to low back tightness but managed to secure the win. It is uncertain whether Wheeler will be able to make his next scheduled start against Oakland on Sunday.
Wheeler disclosed that his back had been bothering him since a game on June 22, attributing the discomfort to a hard landing on the mound before a road trip. Despite dealing with the issue, Wheeler continued to pitch but acknowledged the need for treatment.

I hope this was helpful. Let me know if you need more help with that.
