Mookie Betts Reaches Base Three Times On Friday
4 years agoLos Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts had a strong day at the plate in Friday's 2-1 win over the San Francisco Giants. Betts went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk and a run. It's been a somewhat quiet start to the year for Betts. Through 38 games, he's slashing .258/.366/.452 with five home runs, five stolen bases, 16 RBI and 25 runs. His hard-hit rate (40.6%) and barrel rate (5.5%) are down a bit from recent seasons, but his plate discipline remains elite. He has a 15.3% strikeout rate and a 12.6% walk rate. Expect to see Betts' batting average start to climb soon and some better power numbers should come with it too.
