Mookie Betts stole the show in the Boston Red Sox’s home opener.

Betts completely took over the game in a span of two innings April 13 against the Washington Nationals at Fenway Park. The 22-year-old’s performance was so impressive that ESPN’s “Sport Science” decided to examine the effort in greater detail.
