Not only can
Mookie Betts run balls down in the outfield, and smack doubles into the gap—he can also handle the 2-7 or 3-10 'baby split'. For those who only know candlepins (the only
truly legitimate bowling), Mookie is an elite
ten pin bowler—and has been most of his life. In the
Professional Bowlers Association Cheetah Championship in Reno, Nevada,
Mookie rolled games of 224, 140, 245, 180, 168, 194, 249, 213 and 154—finishing the day in 212th place. Said Mookie,
"It was fun...I would have liked to be at least even (average 200), but for the first time, it was okay...That’s the learning curve. Hopefully I’ll do better tomorrow." Just don't pull a hammy!
