For all of the emotions that played into his long-awaited return to Fenway Park this weekend, Dodgers star Mookie Betts wanted to make one thing clear before Friday’s series opener between the Red Sox and Dodgers.
“We’re here to take care of business,” Betts noted. “And that’s exactly where my head is right now.”
Sure enough, the NL MVP frontrunner did just that during his three games against his former team. During the Dodgers’ series victory against Boston, Betts went 7-for-15 with a home run, two doubles, four RBI, one walk, and five runs scored over three games.
