“Life is about more than kind of what you do as far as work. It’s about how you affect people,” Betts said. “We live by that. So when we come across people, we always make ’em smile, do what you can to help them, and the Lord blesses you.”
Betts was the Dodgers' nominee for the yearly honor that goes to a Major League player who represents the sport through character, community involvement, philanthropy and positive contributions on and off the field.
