In a jaw-dropping moment that sent shockwaves through Citizens Bank Park and left manager Rob Thomson visibly stunned, Philadelphia Phillies superstar third baseman Alec Bohm made a major announcement that has the baseball world buzzing.

Following the Phillies’ latest win, Bohm unexpectedly took the postgame spotlight — not to talk about his scorching hot bat or Gold Glove-caliber defense, but to address his future with the organization. With reporters and teammates looking on, Bohm stepped to the mic and delivered a powerful message.

“This city has become my home, this team is my family — and I’m not going anywhere,” Bohm said. “I’ve made the decision to commit my long-term future to the Phillies. This is where I want to win, and where I want to finish what we’ve started.”

Though no official contract figures were revealed, multiple league insiders believe a long-term extension is either finalized or nearing completion, potentially locking in the 27-year-old cornerstone for the remainder of his prime.

Rob Thomson, who had no advance warning of Bohm’s public declaration, appeared visibly emotional afterward. “I’m speechless,” he told reporters. “You coach a guy like Alec once in a career. He’s everything you want — a pro, a leader, and someone who just keeps getting better.”

Bohm has been on an incredible run in 2025, slashing .358/.466/.684 over his last 26 games, and playing some of the best baseball of his career. A homegrown product of the Phillies’ system, Bohm has gone from a promising draft pick to a fan favorite and one of the team’s most reliable everyday players.

His decision to commit long-term is being hailed as a major win for the franchise and a clear signal that the Phillies’ core remains united in their pursuit of a championship.

For fans in Philadelphia, the message is clear: Alec Bohm is here to stay — and he’s not done chasing greatness.
