Mookie Betts is a class act. Congrats to TJ Friedl I hope you hit a lot more homeruns. But not against our boys in blue :) Go Dodgers!
That’s cool his first hit was a HR and it has this amazing Mookie Betts backstory with it.

You people forget he cheated the Dodgers from a world series knowing that the redsox where cheating and now he doesn't want Bauer back on the team what a hypocrite that guy
What a great chain reaction of humanity at its finest . Rookie gets his first hr, mookie trades reds fan his bat for hr ball and reds fan gives mookies bat to young betts fan

Why does everyone keep saying that guy gave the bat to the kid? He didn't. He just let the kid and his dad get a picture with it. The guy that caught the HR ball kept the bat. It was on twitter earlier showing the guy who caught the HR walking out with the bat. He only let the kid and his dad get a picture with it.

I can see where people are getting confused but yes, he kept the bat. I would’ve too. 😁😄 Sorry kid. I was a kid once too. Now if it was a ball??? I have three of those from games. I could cough up the next one. 😉
No one going to mention how the dude that received the mookie autographed bat, gave it to a kid!? That on its own is mind blowing respect. It was a mookie autographed bat!!!

I don’t think it’ll take more than a sincere thanks! Mookie seems like a real good, down to earth guy who loves and respects the game! Maybe an autograph ball I’m sure he’d be happy with incase you got 40-50 and get Rookie of the year next season, or take him out to a good Vegan restaurant around Cincinnati! I know he likes food and is vegan.

Its great to know that it means this much to fans too. It just proves that baseball fans are the best sports fans there are. They take the time to understand the nuance of the game and they take the time to recognize that when it is all said and done there are things about this game that are more important and are going to be remembered longer than who won the NL West division in 2021.

I think it’s because there’s a certain romanticism that goes with baseball that you just don’t get with other sports…. Every ball player has fantasized and played that scenario in their mind of being in a World Series game 7, bottom of the 9th, 2 outs, bases loaded, down 3 and YOUR standing at the plate and somehow you catch lightning ⚡️⚾️⚡️⚾️⚡️⚾️⚡️⚾️⚡️⚾️

He should be thanking the fan. If this guy ends up becoming a star player that ball is gonna be worth thousands.
That alone mookie deserves MVP!
During the 2018 playoffs in Boston, after a game Mookie on his way home stopped and bought a large amount of pizzas and delivers them to a homeless camp area around Boston Common. The man was nothing but pure class while he was in Boston
At the end of each day or night Players should be united together & for Mookie to do that for someone who he probably has never met is just incredible. I know Covid is thing & you can't really have that much communication w/Fans but I wish there were more of those Fan | Player Interactions/Exchanges would change Life | Sports(MLB).
As a Boston Red Sox fan, this is the Mookie we knew. Great to know that LA hasn't changed him much

Class act from an all-timer
Mookie Betts is a great guy and he also is one of the best hitters in mlb!
Extremely classy of Mookie.
Sportsmanship at its finest. All around. Really cool
That's a wonderful act from a great athlete and human being.
Well played by all. Good luck with the career TJ and quality act by Mookie Betts.
Sportsmanship at its finest
Just another reason why I LOVE this game!
That's my boy... Hell yeah Mookie.... LA love good vibes from a true champ 💙
My coach always said remember baseball is the only game you go to work in a button up, top class Mook.
Class by the Cincy fan AND Mookie. And seeing the little kid with the Betts t-shirt is awesome!
Mookie always was a class act. Pure human being. We all can learn from this man
Mookie is the man, loved when he was on the sox. Stand up guy
Much respect to Mookie on this one!
That's what sports should be all about.. rivalry during the game when it counts, but camaraderie overall. Well done Mookie!
How to make friends and influence people; The Mookie Betts Story. We need more people like Mookie
That’s good stuff right there.
One of those rare feel-good-about-humans moment. Mookie for the win!
Mookie is a class act
I learned the other day that Mookie is a great bowler too.
Classiest Guy In MLB. Mookie Betts.
Class act by Mookie, good luck to TJ in the rest of his career. Go Dodgers.
Was Also A Great Shot TJ Congratulations
Class act...all the way!
Mookie is a class act for that move..
That's wild, I was never a Betts man. Great player, just was never a huge fan, I am now tho. What a great thing to do for an opposing player
Is anybody going to acknowledge how great the fans catch was?
Mookie Betts is a great ballplayer but an even greater human being.
Mookies spokesmanship is MVP caliber.
First class nothing else to say.
A major tip of the Dodger cap to the Reds fan for giving it to the little Mookie fan.
Boston still loves Mookie!

What’s counterintuitive is that we want our fan base to own our first HR ball My house has the biggest ball sack
Sure is real easy to root for a guy like mookie. Go Dodgers
You don’t have to thank Mookie. Mookie knows.
