Mookie Betts was named the 2025 recipient of Major League Baseball’s most prestigious individual player honor, the Roberto Clemente Award, which is annual recognition of an MLB player who best represents the game through extraordinary character, community involvement, philanthropy, and positive contributions, both on and off the field.
Betts was nominated by the Los Angeles Dodgers for his many extraordinary efforts, including supporting young people in a variety of ways and helping victims of the L.A. fires. Betts will be formally presented with the Roberto Clemente Award at Dodger Stadium before Game 3 of the World Series.
