Nabs fourth steal Betts went 1-for-3 with a walk, a run and a stolen base in a loss to the Phillies on Sunday.

Impact Betts extended his modest hitting streak to six games with a third-inning single that he followed with a swipe of second base. The superstar outfielder has been more power than speed this season with 17 homers to four steals, but he is on pace to register his 10th straight campaign with double-digit thefts and home runs. Three of Betts' four stolen bases have come over his past 14 contests.

Goes deep in loss Betts went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run in a loss to the Phillies on Friday.

Impact Betts helped spur a Los Angeles rally with a two-run shot to left field in the seventh inning, though Philadelphia ended up with the win on a Kyle Schwarber walk-off homer. Betts is up to 17 long balls on the campaign, six of which have come over his past eight games. He's slashing .314/.400/.829 with eight RBI, nine runs and a steal over that stretch. At his current pace, Betts will easily exceed his career-high mark of 35 home runs, which he established last season.

Hits 16th homer Betts went 1-for-5 with a solo home run against Cincinnati in Wednesday's loss.

Homers twice again Betts went 4-for-4 with two home runs, three RBI, two runs scored and one steal in Friday's 8-4 win over the Yankees.

Impact After wrapping up May with a two-homer night, Betts did it again with two more big flies, bringing his season total to 15. He could push for 40 homers, a feat he has never accomplished, if he stays on this pace. His .551 slugging percentage is the third highest mark of his career, behind the shortened 2020 season and his monster 2018 campaign. Betts has not taken advantage of the new rules, as he has just three steals on the season. However, he still could reach double figures for the ninth straight year.

Snags second steal Betts went 1-for-5 with a run, an RBI and a stolen base against Tampa Bay in a 6-5 win Saturday.

Impact The biggest news here is that Betts finally ran again -- he swiped his first base of the campaign April 22, then didn't attempt to steal again over his following 29 games. The veteran outfielder is currently well below pace to extend his streak of double-digit thefts to nine seasons, though he's been trending down in that area for several years, averaging just 12 steals over the past four campaigns after notching 20-plus thefts in each of his first four full big-league seasons. Betts has nonetheless been productive in other ways so far in 2023, recording 11 homers, 14 doubles, 30 RBI and 38 runs through 50 contests.
