LOS ANGELES -- Mookie Betts stood on the Dodger Stadium field Friday night, a commemorative World Series cap on his head and a wide smile on his face, and made what felt like an apt comparison moments after the Los Angeles Dodgers completed a National League Championship Series sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers.
"It's like we're the Chicago Bulls," Betts said, "and he's Michael Jordan."
Betts was referring, of course, to Shohei Ohtani, who had once again put together a performance many of his peers described as the greatest in baseball history.
