Red Sox super-star
Mookie Betts announced on Twitter today that he and his girlfriend Bri are
expecting a baby in mid-November. Said Mookie: "This year continues to be good to me!!! Can’t wait to meet you baby Betts more life, more blessings!!!" The Boston right-fielder is putting together an MVP-type season in 2018—leading
all of Major League Baseball in hitting (.341). The 25-year-old native of Nashville, Betts is in his fifth season with the Red Sox. He's already a three-time All-Star and two-time Gold Glove winner. He is a .299 career hitter, with 104 HRs, 368 RBIs and an .876 OPS. Assuming the 2018 version of
The Carmine Hose continue their run and win a seventh World Series Championship,
"Baby Betts" would follow not that long after the final out in late October. We wish Mookie and Bri all the best in their new roles as parents!
