Red Sox’s Mookie Betts Apparently Can Hit Golf Balls Really Far, Too

Is there anything Mookie Betts can’t do?

The Boston Red Sox outfielder is a two-time American League Gold Glove Award winner, a Most Valuable Player award runner-up and a part-time professional bowler who casually bowls perfect 300s. So, it should come as little surprise that Betts also is a decent golfer.

OK, Betts is no Happy Gilmore, but 213 yards still is nothing to sniff at.

Personally, we’re just waiting for the day we find out Betts is an aspiring professional gamer like Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward.
