Padres\u2019\u00a0Manny Machado\u00a0also hit a homer, but there was only one car up for grabs.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, Betts was fantastic for the Dodgers in South Korea. In game one, Betts recorded two hits, one walk and one RBI in four at-bats during a 5-2 win. The next day, Betts led the team with four hits, one home run, six RBIs, and two runs of his own in five at-bats.<\/p>\n<p>All in all, Betts has begun the season hitting .667 and getting on-base .727 percent of the time. It\u2019s only two games, but the six-time All-Star and former American League batting champion looks like he is on track for a(nother) career year.<\/p>\n<p>Betts remains Mr. Consistent and Mr. Reliable for the Dodgers. Whether it\u2019s switching positions to second base and then shortstop to help his team, or leading the scoring in their first two games of the regular season, Betts is one of the most valuable people to the franchise.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first home run of the 2024\u00a0MLB\u00a0season belongs to\u00a0Mookie Betts.
