Mookie Betts exits game with hand injury after getting hit by pitch | ESPN MLB 

Yeah, cause it’s not like they have Ohtani

@@schunckethat’s just one player

Dan is a bum

Brings back those painful hits on the hand Jeter had

Actually his initials are M.L.B... no joke. Markus Lynn Betts

The virtue signaling is out of control...whether or not you're a yankees fan is completely irrelevant. For the life of me I'll never understand why people feel the need to include that in completely unrelated sports video comment. Like you're somehow a more honorable human being for wishing someone well that isn't on your favorite team 🤣🤣 Real easy to say you're a "life-long" fan this year too, ey? 🤣🤣

@@JakeTheSnake9153 piss off and stop hating. Why am I in your mind rent free?

@@morningsidedriverock Not even close child. I'm doing you a favor. Letting you know how transparent you are. Use it as a tool so you can be less of a tool in the future 👍

At 98 mph too? Feel for him.

terrible luck? who the hell pitches like that? that was a dirty throw

@@a61374Terrible luck, nonetheless. The Dodgers pitchers have also thrown plenty of those. It goes both ways.

@@JumboJuneau sure whatever. The pitcher didn't even apologize, but it happens in sports anyways so fair enough. However, intentional or not it is obvious the guy can't pitch.

I can feel his pain just watching him in agony on the ground.

Yeah it’s fractured, I see it watching MLB tonight

@@Emery_SS13glad. Also Greg and Pedro are bringing their A game tonight

It's broken and im hitting hella batters if I'm them

Unfortunately, it's confirmed a fractured wrist. Wishing Betts a speedy recovery.

It’s broken

As A Dodger Fan Is Mookie returning in August?

@@PowerfulThanEver No his career is over

3-8 weeks? lmao. 3 weeks = virtually impossible. 8 weeks = very wishful thinking. Even if he were to return in 8 weeks I find it hard to believe his hand function would be 100% Which would mean diminished performance and higher likelihood of re=injuring it.

Good luck with that. I fractured my hand pretty good and so did my mom.... if you are lucky it will take 3 months. And my hand is not the same since.

Remember when Corey Seager got hit in the hand and missed 11 weeks? I can see the same with Mookie Betts. We won't see him until most likely September.

ありがとございます

Hopefully he will have total hand recovery. I know I did not. I elected not to have surgery and my hand is about 90-95% of what it used to be.

Fr 😭😭😭

Doesn’t really matter you guys are destined to lost in the NLDS anyways like usual

@@austinfederspiel5781 shut up your probably a Yankees fan

@@SkibidiDogeateryou’re*

Yeah, I’m a Royals fan, and that was in no way intentional. It sucks, but it’s just part of the game. Young guy getting his first real shot, no malice at all. I’m quite sure the Dodgers team and staff all knew it wasn’t intentional. There’s no bad blood between these two teams.

Yeah look at where the catcher was set up. He just missed his spot

Well, at least I can put one of your concerns to rest: Mookie will be back around August. 🙂

Yamamoto will be back soon. a broken hand tho is rough

For some reason everyone gets injured against the Royals

I'll be back too

@blakesmith5198 Thanks for including that you're a rangers fan... We all needed to know and we all care VERY much. @HBKStyles Arnold Schwarzenegger? Is that you?!?!

Just like your moms butthole

And Mike trout to.

that looked absolutely brutally painful.

Because pitchers, teams rather, are prioritizing velocity. Most pitchers are almost averaging their max velocity per pitch. Back in the day pitchers didn’t hit their max almost every other pitch. They have ways of getting guys throwing much harder than they would have years ago and throwing it that hard more often than not. So when the pitcher is a bum like this guy, he can’t control the ball at the velocity he’s throwing and they probably lose a lot more control after just a few innings or so now. I don’t think the way pitching has evolved is sustainable. It’s either going to plateau at what it is now, or pitchers are going to become minimal investment pieces regardless of their talent. None will last. Like running backs in the nfl.

Same. Royals can suck a dic*

It wasn’t intentional

You guys booing the pitcher was fucked up tho I don’t think he did it on purpose he was throwing basically 100 mph and when throwing that hard it’s easy for a ball to get away from you

@@austinfederspiel5781 we know he didn’t do it on purpose but he injured our best player (debatable)

It would make sense to me. There are so many bones in the hand... and full recovery can be tricky (at least it was for me).

All it takes is one miss to hit. Also Altavilla sucks so tbf career probably won’t last much longer anyway

They do make protection for the hand …..ohtani wears them all the time …

LMAO...you have never put a jockstrap on......

That was Mookie Betts You could do the same to whole KC lineup and wouldn’t matter 🤷🏻‍♂️

He threw at him. Look at the release. Just like when Snell threw a 97mph ball at Bryce hand. These pitchers are crazy. Then they want to say it's an accident. Look at the pitcher who broke Stanton's jaw.

@@aloistmartinnot that it’s relevant, but Bobby Witt is having a better season than Mookie. This wasn’t intentional. There’s no history between these teams-it’s just an unfortunate part of the game. I hope he recovers quickly and fully, because he’s fun to watch and he conducts himself well. No one wants to see any player hurt, especially one as talented and respected as Betts.

@@michaelblake6502yeah, you have no idea what you’re talking about. There was no reason to try and hit him, it was obviously an accident. That kind of thing happens in sports. It sucks, but it happens.

Actually, it was always the Big Four. Will is consistently a just below .300 hitter.

It was not intentional. Altavilla was in his third game with the team. It wasn’t located in a place where a pitcher would throw it to intentionally hit the batter. There is no way to blame the Royals for Yamamoto. Everyone just gets injured against the Royals fsr

This wasn’t an attack. 😂 You’re being absurd.

It wasn’t intentional. Altavilla has been super wild all year and just missed his spot. Look at where the catcher was set up. Lower outside corner of the plate. Plus, if you want to hit the batter intentionally, you don’t throw it there

@@Adam.Frazier The catcher made that gesture on purpose because he knew everyone would think like you. They intended to take out Betts, Ohtani, or Freeman from the start to hurt the Dodgers. Such a dirty trick is just the kind of tactic you'd expect from a poverty-stricken franchise.

@@KanetsuguNaoe1112 Roberts and the Dodgers didn’t think it was on purpose so why do you. Also the Royals are good this year and I know they would never throw at anyone on purpose. They didn’t throw at Judge or Soto after getting crushed by the Yankees twice, they didn’t throw at Gunnar or Altuve or anyone else, they didn’t throw at a Dodger in the first two games, why would they throw at Mookie Betts out of all people at that particular time?

@@Adam.Frazier What are you even looking at? Do you seriously think Dodgers fans aren’t furious after seeing Altavilla's actions? You go on and on defending him and the Royals, but you can't possibly understand the mentality of a group of criminals. Everyone believed the Astros until they got caught cheating. The Royals are worse because they're intentionally hurting people.
