Los Angeles Dodgers' Mookie Betts has been a full-time second baseman for eight seasons and six Gold Gloves in right field.

The 31-year-old switched to shortstop less than a week before he and the rest of the Dodgers flew to South Korea .

Betts is producing at his customary level, with a293/.377/.500 slash line, 19 home runs and 16 stolen bases in 111 games.

Betts has thrived in high-leverage moments throughout his career, though he has accumulated just two hits in 25 at-bats over the past two division series.

If not for the 98-mph fastball that ran in on his hands in the middle of June , Betts could have remained at shortstop.

He appreciated the rare time it provided with his family; it helped him get closer to his 17-month-old son.
