Mookie Betts is one of MLB’s best and most iconic players. So it would stand to reason he’d likely be more beloved by Los Angeles Dodgers fans than others. But even Betts — who is known for his great self-awareness — probably couldn’t have predicted what happened between himself and a fan during a recent game.
The Dodgers star took to Twitter Tuesday to reveal he made a friendly wager with a fan sitting behind home plate. If Betts were to hit a home run in that appearance, the fan would make his upcoming newborn daughter’s middle name “Mookie.” Betts, of course, mashed a dinger, but it was unclear if the fan would keep their word.
