Pham underwent surgery during the offseason to address a stab wound and a wrist injury. The 32-year-old initially thought he wouldn’t be able to play again, but four months later his recovery is ahead of schedule. Pham started in LF and batted cleanup in Sunday’s springer opener against the Mariners. He went 0-for-2 and left two on base during Sunday’s 5-4 loss to the Mariners.
