Their outfits paid tribute to the 2003 Christmas comedy Elf, starring Will Ferrell.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Skenes dressed as Buddy the Elf, complete with his signature green outfit, pointed hat, tights, and boots. He also carried a plate of spaghetti, referencing Buddy&#8217;s unusual food combinations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Dunne completed the matching theme as a bottle of Mrs. Butterworth&#8217;s pancake syrup. Her costume referenced Buddy&#8217;s love of maple syrup, which he famously adds to almost everything. Together, the pair playfully recreated one of the movie&#8217;s most recognizable running jokes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Away from their Halloween festivities, both have major developments in their respective careers. Skenes wrapped up his 2026 season with a<a data-ylk=\"slk:3.82 ERA and 200 strikeouts over 32 starts and 174.1 innings pitched;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;link&quot;,&quot;yLinkElementType&quot;:&quot;article_link&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mlb.com\/player\/paul-skenes-694973\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"> 3.82 ERA and 200 strikeouts over 32 starts and 174.1 innings pitched<\/a>, while limiting his walks to just 49.
