Mookie Betts ‘Embracing’ Pressure Of Playing For Dodgers

Mookie Betts has been everything the Los Angeles Dodgers hoped he would be when they completed a trade with the Boston Red Sox and then signed him to a 12-year contract extension. Whether it be with his glove, arm, on the basepaths or in the batter’s box, Betts has done a bit of everything.

That was again the case in the Dodgers’ 6-5 win over the L.A. Angels on Saturday night as he drove home two with a bases-loaded single to tie the game in the second inning. He then hit a game-tying solo home run in the seventh.
