Mookie Betts showed off his bowling skills by winning the PBA Celebrity Invitational
In 2018, Mookie Betts achieved true athletic greatness in winning the World Series with the Red Sox and competing in the World Series of Bowling. He even rolled a perfect game in the qualifying rounds of the latter. Though his bowling accomplishments may have been overshadowed by his and the Red Sox success on the baseball field, that shouldn't diminish just how impressive his bowling skills are.
On Sunday, Betts competed in the 2019 CP3 PBA Celebrity Invitational with his typical partner, professional bowler Tommy Jones. Betts' team reached the finals, where they faced a team of Terrell Owens and Pete Weber. The 2018 World Series champion emerged victorious:

Given Mookie's history in bowling, it should come as no surprise that he was a big part of his team's success. Watch him pick up an impressive spare in the quarterfinal round:

With an MVP Award, a World Series trophy and a celebrity bowling championship all in the span of just a few months, it's fair to wonder whether greatness comes to everything Betts touches.
