How Mookie Betts’ Position Switch Could Change Baseball History Forever
Mookie Betts has taken a unique path to playing shortstop for the Los Angeles Dodgers. In fact, it stands out even in the long history of Major League Baseball.
In the summer of 2037, or thereabouts, a bronze plaque of Mookie Betts will be cast in Pittsburgh.
An artist will have frozen his oft-beaming face for immortalization and a writer will have completed a potentially more challenging task: Condensing his career into roughly 10 lines of resume lines to remember.
As Betts approaches age 32, the picture has largely taken shape. Top-of-the-order dynamo, hand-eye coordination savant, shockingly powerful athlete in a lithe 5-foot-10 package, champion and icon with two different legendary clubs.
