Even though Shohei Ohtani is inarguably the best player on the Los Angeles Dodgers, the question of who is the best athlete on the team has raised some debate for the reigning World Series champs.

Mookie Betts has a history of carefully deciding whether or not to attend the White House after previous World Series victories. Both in 2018 with the Boston Red Sox and in 2020 with the Dodgers, Betts gained a World Series ring, but in 2019 elected not to visit President Trump.

Dustin May pitched five strong innings after missing nearly two years, Mookie Betts hit his third go-ahead homer of the season and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the winless Atlanta Braves 3-1.
