2025 Postseason: Recapturing Mookie | by Cary Osborne | Sep, 2025
Mookie Betts stood in front of his locker in the Dodger clubhouse on Aug. 8 after an impactful evening in the batter’s box, including a two-run home run off future Hall of Famer Max Scherzer.
One of the greatest position players of this generation for the first time in his career wasn’t producing at an All-Star-caliber level. And factually, he was producing below the Major League average.
It’s the point where he let go. That Aug. 8, he said his focus was now more about doing the little things to help the Dodgers win.
“I just accepted failing,” Betts reflected on Monday on the eve of the Wild Card Series. “My thought process on failing changed. … Instead of just sulking in, ‘I tried this and it failed, and now I don’t know where to go.’ I just used it as a positive and it eventually turned.”

Mookie Betts shares one wish for Dodgers' next World Series title
Mookie Betts has already won three World Series in his career – two with the Los Angeles Dodgers, and one with the Boston Red Sox. And yet, he still has his sights set on accomplishing more.
The Dodgers' star outfielder, who recently joined FanSided’s Adam Weinrib to preview the MLB Postseason heading into October, revealed his one wish for Los Angeles' next World Series title: to win at home, in front of the Dodgers faithful.
"I've won three World Series, and I think none of them have been at home," Betts said. "So I would like to do one at home in front of the home crowd just to see and feel what that would feel like."
