After presenting Red Sox fans with the gift of another World Series in October, Mookie Betts is once again in the giving mood during the holiday season.
The 26-year-old American League Most Valuable Player gave new bikes to a group of children in Nashville earlier this week. For Betts, who hit for the cycle in August, bikes have a special significance.
“You always remember your first bike,” Betts said, who grew up in Tennessee. The gifting took place at the Donelson-Hermitage YMCA.
“It’s amazing just to know that you’re making somebody happy in some way,” said Betts.
