Make California Post a Preferred Source The Los Angeles Dodgers got beaten, battered and embarrassed by the Milwaukee Brewers in the National League Championship Series. Now, even elementary school kids in Wisconsin are getting their shots in and trolling the reigning champs.
Less than 24 hours after the Brewers completed their stunning four-game sweep of the two-time defending World Series champions, a young Milwaukee fan showed up to his school’s Halloween party Friday dressed as a battered Dodgers player.
Complete with a Dodgers uniform, baseball pants and fake blood, the youngster delivered the punchline with the kind of comedic timing that would make a professional stand-up comedian jealous.
“Ow, I got beat up by the Brewers,” the boy proclaimed in a hilarious video posted to Instagram by his mother, Alexa Dobry.

“Why is their Halloween party two weeks before Halloween?” one Reddit user wondered.
“Maybe it’s a party deferred from last year,” another replied, delivering a brilliant jab at the Dodgers’ billion-dollar collection of deferred salaries, and the fact that the Brewers were swept by Los Angeles in the NLCS last year.
The Brewers deserve credit for beating a Dodgers team that assembled a starting rotation featuring two-time AL Cy Young Award winner Tarik Skubal, 2025 World Series MVP Yoshinobu Yamamoto, two-time NL Cy Young Award Blake Snell and All-Star Tyler Glasnow, yet somehow couldn’t win a single game against Milwaukee despite holding a lead in all four contests.
It marked the first NLCS sweep suffered by the Dodgers in franchise history, a particularly bitter reversal after Los Angeles swept Milwaukee in the same round last October. Apparently baseball has a funny way of settling scores.
The Brewers, who won an MLB-best 103 games during the regular season, are headed to their first World Series since 1982, while the Dodgers are headed home to contemplate how a roster overflowing with superstars couldn’t produce one victory in the LCS.
