The Los Angeles Dodgers’ All-Star Mookie Betts is once again the most popular baseball player in the MLB. At least, in terms of jersey sales.

On Monday, one day after the regular 2021 MLB season wrapped up, the league shared the list of 20 players who had most of their jerseys sold through MLBShop.com since Opening Day. Betts claimed the top of the list with his No. 50 jersey, repeating the feat from 2020.

Three other Dodgers players cracked the top 10, including ace Clayton Kershaw at the fifth spot, first baseman Cody Bellinger at sixth, and shortstop Corey Seager at eighth.

The list saw Sand Diego Padres phenom Fernando Tatis Jr. claim the second spot and confirming his bid to become the new face of the league. All-Star outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. of the Atlanta Braves sold the third most jerseys in 2021 despite finishing his season in July.

The top 10 was rounded by Javier Baez, who split the season between the Chicago Cubs and the New York Mets, Aaron Judge (New York Yankees), Shohei Ohtani (Los Angeles Angels), and Nolan Arenado (St. Louis Cardinals).
