Mookie Betts is having himself one heck of a Taco Tuesday for the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Mookie Betts stole a taco from Taco Bell already, and then he went big fly just for show.

The Los Angeles Dodgers are pouring it on the Tampa Bay Rays in Game 1 of the 2020 World Series. Rays skipper Kevin Cash left starter Tyler Glasnow in there way too long, and his team paid a price for it. A few innings later in the bottom of the sixth, the Dodgers’ most talented player went opposite was on Taco Tuesday to hit his first career postseason home run in Dodger Blue.

So was all that “financial flexibility” worth it, Boston Red Sox?

This will go down as one of the dumbest things the Boston Red Sox have ever done. It’s right up there with Grady Little’s pitching staff management in Game 7 of the 2003 ALCS and trading Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees. It happens, but you hope to learn from your mistakes, no matter how many generations you are removed from said mistakes. Learning from the past is expected.

By opting for “financial flexibility”, the Red Sox let their best hitter since David Ortiz and best outfielder since Manny Ramirez or Jim Rice spend the prime of his career playing for somebody else. This postseason, Betts has robbed many hitters from homers, robbed tacos from Taco Bell with his blazing foot speed and has broke the hearts of many Sox fans with his latest homer.

Stealing tacos and hitting big flies are all in a day’s work for a superstar ballplayer like Betts.
