It’s taco time. Mookie Betts with the Los Angeles Dodgers helped his team beat the Tampa Bay Rays, and he also helped fans get a free taco.

“TACOS ON ME!!!!” the right fielder tweeted out Wednesday morning.

For a ninth-straight year, Taco Bell has partnered with the MLB for the “steal a base, steal a taco” campaign.

During Tuesday night’s game 1, Betts stole second base in the 5th inning. The Dodgers won 8-3, and game 2 is scheduled for Wednesday night.

Now everyone can stop by a participating Taco Bell and get a complimentary Nacho Cheese Doritos Locos Taco. It does require signing up for Taco Bell rewards.

This is the second time Betts has stolen a base in the World Series, and triggered the taco perk. In 2018, while playing on the Boston Red Sox, he stole a base during the World Series in a game against his current team, the Dodgers.
