VIDEO: Mookie Betts Rips Single for First Hit in Dodgers Uniform
By Adam Weinrib
Well, that didn't take long! In the second shortened game of Mookie Betts' Dodgers preseason career, he picked up his first hit, a classically rocketed single towards the middle. It was flagged down by the shortstop, but yeah...you're not catching him.
Now we just need to see one in the Dodgers' home whites, and we'll be all set!
Betts has plenty of high expectations on his shoulders entering the final year prior to the free agency he's worked very hard to reach. Odds are this isn't his only season in Hollywood, but just in case, Dodgers fans had better appreciate each and every one of these knocks.
