The Los Angeles Dodgers, eight times All-Star Mookie Betts was recently sincere about his struggles this season, saying that he feels his “season is over.”
“My season is over,” Athletics told last weekend. “We are going to have to attribute that for not a great season. But I can go out and help children win every night, do something, get a RBI, make a play, do something that, I will have to change my approach there.”
A production drought, especially for a Betts caliber player, can be hard with the psyche. However, what helped his mentality has been the support not only of the Club House, but those of the Dodger Stadium and beyond.

In fact, Dodgers fans recently orchestrated an ovation for Betts to show their appreciation and support.
“I have never received an ovation of being bad,” Betts told Pak Gazette Digital, while he also discussed how his mentality is helped through the new “Playa Sounds” of Corona, a first soundtrack of its kind that fuses the iconic sounds of the stadium and the beach. “I have seen it, but never in a million years I thought it would be the one who would get one. But it was.

“It is good to know that although I am going through what I am happening, I am still hugging. It would be very easy for them to simply cancel and tell me: ‘It is over, he was washed – x, and z’. He would feel horrible.
Betts enters Wednesday’s confrontation against Los Angeles de Los Angeles that batter .242/.313/.370 with a .682 OPS, 12 homers and 53 races promoted in 120 games. All these brands are easily the worst of his career, to the point that he even recognized a possible stain in his curriculum of the Hall of Fame.
However, while the MVP of 2018 has been fighting the tribulations of the 2025 season, the support of a Dodgers Unida Club has helped greatly.
“I think it is probably the most important outside of you,” he said when asked about his teammates and trainers who are behind him. “Knowing that it doesn’t matter what you do, good or bad, your boys catch you. They are those who are literally with you every day. You are with these guys more than your family. You are with these guys for eight months essentially. You know everything about you, more about you than you really do. Knowing that they always catch you, and they are fighting with you is something beautiful.
“It is huge to have veterans who have had a bit, maybe not to the same extent that I am happening, or maybe worse. Knowing that your perspective helps you, your support helps you, and it doesn’t matter what, they will be there for you. That definitely helped me move forward.”

Betts has been moving well recently, having a seven -game streak during its stretching of 12 of 30 (.400) on the plate during that period. He had two doubles in that section and, more importantly, he launched his first homer in more than a month on August 8 against the Toronto Blue Jays.
As Betts said, “you don’t want to light a mentality and then be in a head space different from the one you have been playing for six, seven months.” However, intensity is only increasing since Dodgers are in a narrow NL West career with San Diego’s parents tied in the part of the division in play on Wednesday. As defenders of the World Series champions, the Dodgers obviously want to defend the title that enters in October.
It is an unknown territory for Betts, but knowing that the team and the city of Los Angeles have behind him is, perhaps, to help him bend the corner at the right time with the postseason that appears in sight.
Entering a flow with a crown
As Betts advances forward, having a quiet but intense mentality, it is key, especially when the postseason arrives.
Betts helped Corona, the official “beer” of MLB, to create “Playa Sounds”, selecting specific moments of the postseason to pair with soothing beach sounds that help him enter that “flow state”.

“I was able to choose some moments of great swings, great successes, great captures in the postseason, and then combine them with the sounds of the beach. Those waves crash, just put you right in the middle where you are ready for anything intense, but you are also relaxed to be able to do anything,” Betts explained. “Because you don’t want to be too intense when you get in these intense moments, you don’t want to fight fire with fire. So, I really feel that those sounds put you in the middle.
“It has really helped me and puts me in a good mentality.”
