Los Angeles Dodgers star OF Mookie Betts had a little fun as his club took on the San Diego Padres on Sunday Night Baseball. 

Mic'd up, Betts took the opportunity to joke around with Padres star outfielder Juan Soto in the most heartwarming way possible. 

"Can I have your eyes?" Betts said as he approached Soto between innings.

"I need you to show me how to hit!" Soto replied with a laugh. 

"Let me have your eyes, I'll give you my bat," Betts responded before the two went their separate ways.
