Mookie Betts has faced challenges this season, recording a career-low batting average and not being selected for the All-Star team. He attributes his struggles to a hand injury from the previous year. Betts has chosen to prioritize team success over individual statistics, aiming to contribute to the Dodgers' effort in winning games. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts supports this mindset as a mature approach. In recent games, Betts has shown improvement with multiple RBIs and a home run, focusing on small contributions to aid the team's success.
"My season's kind of over, so I'm going to have to chalk that up for not a great season, but I can help the boys win every night."
"That's a good way to look at it - getting small wins and playing to win each night, contributing versus trying to chase a season where you're not kind of realizing your career numbers."
