Remember last year when Mookie Betts refused to stay with his Dodgers teammates at Milwaukee’s supposedly haunted Pfister Hotel? Well, that spooky storyline has come back to life, and this time, it’s Teoscar Hernandez who’s not taking any chances. It seems like he might be fearless at the plate, but when it comes to ghosts, he’s not messing around.

But again, it’s kind of funny… Instead of talking about the Dodgers’ lineup for Game 2 of the NLCS, we’re over here wondering if they need to call in the Ghostbusters! But don’t worry, manager Dave Roberts isn’t buying into the ghost stories. He seems to be the bravest one of the bunch.

“I don’t, those stories went away when I was about 10 years old.” MLB insider Bob Nightengale cited Roberts saying about facing any supernatural activities.

So what’s the deal with Milwaukee’s Pfister Hotel, anyway?

Reportedly, the place has been around for more than a century and is one of the city’s most famous landmarks. No one can say for sure if the ghost stories are real, but plenty of Dodgers players have reported some creepy experiences. For instance, radios shutting off on their own or objects mysteriously moving around. That’s apparently enough to rattle even the toughest ballplayers.

And as for Teoscar Hernandez, he says he doesn’t actually believe in ghosts, but his wife does. So, just to play it safe, they’re staying somewhere else. “I don’t believe in ghosts,” Hernandez said. “I have stayed in there before. I’ve never seen anything or heard anything. But my wife is on this trip, and she said she doesn’t want to stay there. So we have to find another hotel.”

The Pfister Hotel’s haunted reputation isn’t just a recent headline—it’s practically a legend in baseball lore. Built in 1893, the grand Victorian landmark has long been celebrated for its opulence and equally infamous for its ghost stories. Players like Bryce Harper, Giancarlo Stanton, and Carlos Gómez have all shared eerie encounters there, from flickering lights and unexplained noises to objects mysteriously moving on their own.

Many believe the spirit of founder Charles Pfister still roams the halls, keeping an eye on guests and, perhaps, the visiting teams who dare to stay. The Pfister even ranks among America’s most haunted hotels, adding an extra layer of drama every time the MLB rolls into Milwaukee.

Now, for Roberts, they didn’t take a second to brush off the fears, rather are more focused on game 2. Hence, for now, Roberts seems to be the ghostbuster of the Dodgers. But for him, he needs to steer the team ahead of the best performing underdog of this year, the Brewers, rather than discuss their haunted stay.

The Dodgers’ offense is more haunting

The team that excelled in the entire regular season, riding on their offensive heroics, has yet to show the same in the NLCS. Guess what, the Dodgers have won game 1, but a scoreline of 2-1 is not something typical of them.

While the Brewers burned through their bullpen trying to shut down the Dodgers’ bats, the Dodgers stuck to what it does best… Dominant pitching!

Notably, Blake Snell delivered an all-time postseason gem. He completely silenced the Brewers, facing the minimum through eight innings, striking out 10, and allowing just one hit. Furthermore, Snell was so locked in that he gave up only one fair fly ball all game and forced 11 groundouts.

Reportedly, over his last six starts, Snell has posted a ridiculous 0.68 ERA, tossing 40 innings, giving up just 15 hits, and striking out 56. Now it’s up to Dave Roberts to make sure the Dodgers’ lineup wakes up for Game 2, and not their haunted hotels.
