Phillies Alec Bohm had a tough day at the office on Monday. Bohm made three errors at third base in the first three innings of the game against the Mets.
As the Philly Faithful cheered for Bohm after he made a routine play, he was caught on camera mouthing some choice words.
“I f-cking hate this place,” he said.

Despite his three errors in the field, the Phillies came back from four runs down to defeat the Mets, 5-4.
Bohm’s comments spread like wildfire on social media. Following the game, Bohm owned up to his comments on the field.
The Phillies third baseman said his “emotions got the best of him” and did not mean any offense toward the franchise or Philadelphia.
“I said it. Do I mean it? No,” Bohm said. “It’s a frustrating night for me, obviously. Made a few mistakes in the field. Look, these people, these fans, they just want to win. You heard it, we come back, they’re great. I’m just sorry to them. I don’t mean that.”
Alec Bohm or Chuck Knoblauch?
Bohm put on his best Chuck Knoblauch impression by showcasing the yips he had at the hot corner. Here are the three errors he made in the game against the Mets.

“I think it’s a kid that was frustrated,” Phillies manager Joe Girardi said. “I don’t think that kid was referring to, you know, the city of Philadelphia, the fans, I think he was referring to the situation he was in. Put yourself in his shoes.
