Following Game 2 of the World Series, Mookie Betts was asked, "Do you ever get stressed out in a big situation? You always seem so relaxed."
"I found something that helps me to breathe," Betts said with a smile.
That "something" — according to the AL MVP favorite and World Series champion — is the biggest influence on his rise to stardom.
"I put things into perspective," Betts added. "I know that no matter how good or bad I do I get the same smiles and hugs from my family."
