Inside Dodgers' World Series Run with Mookie Betts, Dave Roberts | On Base, Ep. 32

3x World Series champion Mookie Betts is joined by Dodgers manager Dave Roberts for a special World Series episode to discuss the difference between winning a title as a manager vs. a player, Roberts dancing with Ice Cube, and why he felt the NLDS vs. the Padres 'was the World Series'.
