The Los Angeles Dodgers have positioned themselves to make a 13th consecutive postseason appearance this year, and Mookie Betts will be among the players they figure to rely on.
Betts has not performed up to his standards this season, but he has had his moments as a difference maker in the postseason during his Dodgers career and helped power the offense on two separate World Series runs.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts has expressed optimism that a return to October could be the spark that helps Betts get back to his old self at the plate.
In that same spirit, Betts teamed up with Corona to help in the creation of “Playa Sounds,” a soundtrack that combines ballpark sounds with the tranquility of a beach environment in order to help listeners relax and focus.
Betts helped curate the mix of audio from actual MLB games, including home run blasts, in-stadium crowd waves and announcer calls of his most memorable postseason moments. Combined with the relaxing beach sounds and tuned to a relaxing 432hz frequency commonly associated with enhanced clarity, it’s sure to get fans and players alike ready for October.
“As a player, you need to be in the right head space to show up when the lights are brightest,” Betts said. “I worked with Corona to make sure this soundtrack accurately captures the energy of the Postseason and channels that into something both the guys in the dugout and fans can use to prepare for the season’s biggest upcoming moments.”
The program is part of the continued partnership between Corona and Major League Baseball. This season, Corona collaborated with MLB on its ongoing “El Beisbol Es Otra Cosa” content series that celebrates the excitement of the Latino baseball community.
As part of this series, Corona collaborated with MLB to surprise Robert Acuña Jr. and Betts, among others, with unique experiences that highlight the players’ personal interests and culture.
Mookie Betts’ postseason Dodgers history
During the 2024 postseason, Betts hit .290/.387/.565 with five doubles, four home runs and led the Dodgers with 16 RBI. In 2020, he hit .296/.378/.493 with eight doubles, two homers and eight RBI.
Betts also enjoyed a productive 2021 playoffs, though it wasn’t enough to overcome the Atlanta Braves in the National League Championship Series.
He was a non-factor in 2022 and 2023, but so were many of the Dodgers’ offensive stars those seasons.
