Inside the Dugout: A Casual Chat with Alec Bohm and Rhys Hoskins
Rhys Hoskins: What’s up, Alec? How’s your swing feeling these days?
Alec Bohm: Hey Rhys! Feeling pretty good, man. Been tweaking a few things, you know? Trying to get more consistency with my power. What about you? How’s the rehab going?
Rhys Hoskins: Rehab is wild, man. Got a whole new routine, but it’s making me hungrier to get back on the field. Speaking of routines, what’s your go-to pre-game meal these days?
Alec Bohm: You know I can’t resist some good old chicken and pasta. Carbs and protein, dude. Gets me through those long innings. How about you? Anything special, or do you stick to the basics?
Rhys Hoskins: I’m all about the smoothies right now. Throw in some spinach, banana, protein powder—it’s a game-changer. Speaking of game-changers, have you been working on any new tricks in the field?
Alec Bohm: Yeah, been spending extra time on my footwork. Trying to get those Gold Glove instincts, you know? Gotta keep up with you in the field! What’s the biggest thing you’ll focus on when you’re back?
Rhys Hoskins: Definitely mobility and speed. Want to make sure I’m not just a bat in the lineup but solid on defense too. By the way, any new hobbies off the field? Gotta keep that balance, right?
Alec Bohm: Been dabbling in cooking, believe it or not. Tried making homemade sushi last week. It’s a mess, but kind of fun! How about you? Picked up anything new?
Rhys Hoskins: Got back into gaming, honestly. Helps take my mind off the grind. We should get the team together for a gaming night sometime—could be fun. Anyway, any goals for this season you’re psyched about?
Alec Bohm: Yeah, aiming for that All-Star spot, man. And, of course, bringing home the championship. Team’s got the fire, just need to keep it burning. What about you? Anything you’re eyeing once you’re back?
Rhys Hoskins: Just want to contribute any way I can. Dreaming of that parade down Broad Street, you know? Let’s make it happen.
Alec Bohm: Absolutely. Here’s to a killer season! Let’s do it, Rhys!
Rhys Hoskins: Cheers to that, Alec! Let’s get those W’s.
And that’s a wrap from inside the dugout. Stay tuned for more player insights as the season heats up!
