In his first game in two months, Mookie Betts gets the Dodgers on the board with a two-run shot in win over Milwaukee.
Mookie Betts — or, as he’s known around these parts, “Spooky” Betts — returned to the Dodgers lineup for the opener of a four-game series against the Milwaukee Brewers Monday night, refusing to stay with the team at the supposedly haunted Pfister Hotel for the second straight season. Whether ghosts actually exist in the historic 131-year-old downtown hotel filled with grand marble staircases and gold-leaf frames is open to debate, but Betts wasn’t about to take a chance that they do.
Betts, who hadn’t played shortstop regularly since high school, was moved from right field to second base over the winter. But both Betts and the Dodgers decided last Friday that the team, and the player would be better off with Betts in right field, the position Betts has played for a decade and won six Gold Glove Awards at.
