The Morning Of Mookie Betts's Debut

What do you remember about the day of your major league debut?

Mookie Betts:

I remember the hotel [in New York], walking in like, "Wow." When I first got into the room, I was wondering where my roommate was, because you don't have roommates here. My family came in [for the debut]. The morning of the game, we ordered breakfast at that hotel. I got eggs, bacon, some toast. [My girlfriend] Brianna was there. She got some fruit and eggs. My mom and dad were in different rooms. I just know that between the fruit, two orders of eggs, bacon and the order of toast, it was like $112.
