Lakers News: Mookie Betts Channels Kobe Bryant As Dodgers Eye World Series Berth

The Los Angeles Dodgers are one win away from reaching their second consecutive World Series, as they currently hold a 3-0 series lead over the Milwaukee Brewers in the NLCS. And superstar outfielder-turned-shortstop Mookie Betts shouted out Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant while discussing the series.

The Dodgers are currently 8-1 in the playoffs thus far. They swept the Cincinnati Reds in the Wild Card round, defeated the Philadelphia Phillies in four games in the NLDS and could now sweep the Brewers to get to the World Series. That has led to conversation about whether the Dodgers have “broken” baseball and a lockout could be coming to make changes to the league’s existing salary structure.
