Mookie Betts robs Bryce Harper of a home run

By TOC Locker

Red Sox rookie Mookie Betts is taking the world by storm.

In the top of the first inning on Monday, he robbed Washington Nationals star Bryce Harper of a homer with a ridiculous catch.

Then in the bottom of the first, Betts stole second and third base on the same play thanks to Washington shifting on David Ortiz and despite a pretty good throw from Jose Lobaton. Betts' two steals were challenged, and both calls were upheld.

I don’t think the Red Sox are going to be trading Betts any time soon. They’ve got a budding superstar on their hands.
