Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Mookie Betts shares that a recent home run brought up an emotional memory regarding his late stepfather.

Betts says “It’s been a lot” after battling illness earlier in the year, breaking a toe and losing his stepfather as he shifts his focus to helping Dodgers win one game at a time.

The Dodgers shortstop tried to relearn the swing that turned him into an MVP and helped him slug 30 HRs in a season four different times.
