Foenem’s Brewers tribute has traveled through fan videos and playoff highlights as Milwaukee moved within one win of the World Series. The song’s path so far is chiefly documented online: the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported that the Milwaukee artist posted it on TikTok on Oct. 4, and that fans used it in highlight and dance videos. The track names pitcher Jacob Misiorowski and outfielder Christian Yelich.
That online spread reached an official MLB account, according to the Journal Sentinel: MLB paired the song’s lyrics with video of closer Trevor Megill striking out Mookie Betts to end NLCS Game 3, while noting Milwaukee was one win from the World Series. Entering Game 4 on Oct. 16, the Brewers held a 3-0 lead over the Dodgers; a win would send them to their first World Series since 1982, the paper reported.
A fan-made track, not yet a ballpark ritual
The distinction matters: Foenem’s song is documented here as a TikTok-originated track circulating through supporters’ posts, not as an established in-stadium song. The Brewers’ American Family Field guide describes Bernie Brewer as a “time-honored mascot” who entertains fans during games, but that separate game-day tradition does not establish that Foenem’s track is played at the ballpark.
Other baseball songs show how different routes can connect music and fandom. MLB.com recounts that Steve Goodman wrote “Go, Cubs, Go” in 1984 and that it became a post-win singalong at Wrigley Field. In Washington in 2019, Gerardo Parra’s player-selected “Baby Shark” walk-up song was embraced by Nationals players and fans, USA Today reported. The Phillies, by contrast, made “Dancing on My Own” part of their 2022 postseason celebrations, according to WHYY. Those examples document venue-based, player-triggered and team-associated uses; they do not establish a similar role for Foenem’s song.
For now, the Brewers track’s documented significance is its place in the online conversation around a high-stakes playoff run. The comparisons offer context for how songs can become part of baseball fandom, but they do not show that Foenem’s tribute has become a lasting stadium tradition—or that it has influenced the team’s results.
