Mookie Betts' Golf Cart Ends Up Sunken At The Bottom Of A Lake

BOSTON (CBS) -- Mookie Betts is an exceptional baseball player and a very good bowler, too.

He is not, however, a good golf cart driver.

That's apparently the lesson learned from the weekend, when first baseman Travis Shaw tweeted out a photo of a sunken golf cart.

Betts then owned up to the incident a few minutes later.

Based on some basic investigatory efforts, it seems as though perhaps Betts did not apply the parking brake.

98.5 The Sports Hub's Scott Zolak tweeted that it wasn't very funny, which prompted a meme-worthy photo reply from Betts (via Shaw's account).

It figures to be a big year for Betts, but he made clear over the weekend that it's best that he avoid any motorized carts if he wants to stay safe.
