FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) — It’s early in spring training, time to get the new mitt ready.
Or is it?
For the World Series champion Boston Red Sox, some like the feel of new leather, some like it old. Some are superstitious and don’t like change and others don’t worry about that even after a great season.
“A new glove every year,” reigning AL MVP and three-time Gold Glove winner Mookie Betts said Saturday morning at the team’s spring training complex.
But, is the right fielder a bit superstitious about changing after such a successful year?
