Mookie Betts calls on himself to 'play better' to help the Dodgers
Briefly

Mookie Betts has not performed at his expected level for the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2025, with a .200 batting average and several struggles attributed to age, position change, and past injuries. In an effort to reignite his performance, manager Dave Roberts moved him to the leadoff spot for a game against the Brewers. Betts had a modest impact, getting one hit but expressing dissatisfaction with his performance. The team has struggled overall, losing 10 of their last 12 games, prompting Betts to acknowledge a need for improvement in his play.
I think just seeing how Mookie swung the bat today, I was encouraged by that. Obviously setting the table for Shohei, who had another homer.
Just another day at the park. Nothing really changed, so it doesn't matter.
Just got to play better in all facets. Can't speak for everyone, I just know for me, I just got to play better.
With a .200 batting average in the lone result is nothing to celebrate, but it's also an improvement over his recent numbers.
