Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Mookie Betts gets brutally honest regarding his struggles at the plate this season.

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.

Breaking a career-long, five-game, 22 at-bat hitless streak, shortstop Mookie Betts recorded three hits in what the team surely hopes is the start of a turnaround from a slump that has plagued him all season. Betts has slashed just .236/.308/.361 so far this year in his worst season as a professional from the plate.
