Ever since the Dodgers dropped a billion-dollar hammer on Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto, the rest of baseball has melted down.
Ahead of Wednesday’s pivotal Game 3 against the Milwaukee Brewers, the Dodgers decided to take that collective outrage and put it straight onto the cocktail menu.

Dodger Stadium is officially pouring the “#RuiningBaseball margarita” for $25 throughout the NLCS (per Arash Markazi on X). The recipe: tequila, mango and jalapeño margarita mix, and a chile mango slice on the rim.

To their credit, the Dodgers smartly hit opposing fanbases that want to cry about LA’s payroll.
Still, 25 bucks is steep. Chavez Ravine will happily shake those tears over ice, add some heat, and cash the check.

Of course, not every pour required opening your wallet.
For fans trying to stomach a brutal 2-0 series deficit, a free Budweiser stand was on hand at Wednesday’s game to help the faithful chill out and take the edge off before first pitch.
Get-in prices for Game 3 in LA were estimated at the mid-90s level.
Free beer or spicy tequila, Game 3 is a gut check.
The Dodgers desperately need an offensive spark to stay alive this October, in pursuit of the NL’s first-ever three-peat. Channeling a little jalapeño fire from the stands couldn’t hurt a dugout looking to turn the tide.
Win or lose, there’s a chance we may not get Dodgers baseball until 2028 over this feared lockout. And it still won’t be the boys in blue’s fault.
Grab a cup, lean into the hate, and toast to ruining baseball while you still can.
