Watch: Betts flaunts 6th straight strike at celebrity bowling tournament

Mookie Betts knew it as soon as it left his hand.

The Boston Red Sox outfielder and American League MVP runner-up was on hand for the State Farm Celebrity Invitational on Friday night and he certainly didn't disappoint, throwing six consecutive strikes to win the best-ball competition.

Betts and his partner, professional bowler Tommy Jones, advanced to the final in the team event before falling 187-179 to the team of Los Angeles Clippers point guard Chris Paul and pro bowler Chris Barnes.

"I've wanted to bowl in this for a long time and it was everything I expected it to be," said Betts, according to PBA.com. "It was a lot of fun. I'm a little disappointed, but you have to hand it to them. They did what they needed to do to win."
