He won the World Series with the Boston Red Sox in 2018 and another with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>The Dodgers entered Game 5 of the World Series with the chance to close out another championship. Those hopes took an early hit with a strong start from New York Yankees ace Gerrit Cole and a trio of home runs from Aaron Judge, Jazz Chisholm Jr. and Giancarlo Stanton.<\/p>\n<p>Betts did get the Dodgers on the board in the fifth inning on an infield single when Cole did not cover first base. Los Angeles tied the game twice due to a complete defensive collapse from the Yankees.<\/p>\n<p>Betts stepped to the plate against New York closer Luke Weaver with the chance to take the lead. The 2018 American League MVP did his job and lifted a sacrifice fly to center field that scored the go-ahead run for a 7-6 score.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt that point, I was just like, \u2018Don\u2019t strike out,\u201d\u2019 Betts told FOX\u2019s Tom Verducci. \u201cPut one in play right there. You never know what\u2019s gonna happen. I had a little talk with Freddie (Freeman) right before that because I didn\u2019t know what to do. Freddie just said, \u2018Trust your gut.\u2019 I just went up there and said, \u2018Put it in play.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Story continues below advertisement<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>That became the final score as the Dodgers earned their first full-season championship since 1988.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was love,\u201d Betts added. \u201cIt was grit. It was just a beautiful thing. I\u2019m just proud of us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Betts ends his 11th MLB season with his third championship to solidify himself as a transcendent player of his generation with the Red Sox and Dodgers.<\/p>\n<figure><\/figure>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mookie Betts lived up to his Boston Red Sox past, ending another season for the Yankees with the decisive RBI in the World Series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":2950,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2947","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mlb"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
