Sosa went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 9-4 loss to the Reds.
Sosa's homer Wednesday is his first since the Phillies' April 14 loss to the Cubs. The utility man tends to steps into Philadelphia's lineup in favor of Bryson Stott at second base or Brandon Marsh in left field against left-handed pitching, but he hasn't been all that effective at the dish in that role. Through 79 at-bats (28 games), Sosa is hitting .228 with two big flies, three doubles, 14 RBI and two stolen bases.
