Pocket pancakes? Brewers selling ballpark flapjacks after Pat Murphy's viral moment
Murphy went viral in a recent interview for pulling a pancake out of his uniform pocket and taking a bite — sharing the flapjack with the reporter — as he detailed different ways he shoves food into his pockets to snack on in the dugout.
The moment has spawned quite the movement in Milwaukee. The ballclub announced Friday that 'Murph's Pocket Pancakes' will be sold at American Family Field during Sunday games for the rest of the season, starting with this weekend's series against the New York Mets.
The Brewers haven't lost since Murphy whipped the pancake out of his pocket last week, building the best record in the major leagues.
He went on to continue eating his pancake in the postgame press conference while detailing other food items he has brought into the dugout.
'Waffles, pancakes, pizza,' Murphy said.
Murphy then was asked how he can put a slice of pizza in his pocket without staining the uniform.
'If it's cold pizza, you fold it up like a sandwich, you know what I mean,' Murphy said. 'You can eat it during the game. And then when I wear a hoodie, I have the pocket right here, and that's full of crumbs.'
The Brewers will be selling a 'Ball Four Pocket Pack' including four pocket pancakes and a choice of maple syrup or strawberry compote dipping sauce for $4.99. The 'Double Chicken 'n' Pancakes Pocket Pack' costs $7.99 and includes two pancakes stuffed with chicken tender and topped with chopped bacon and a maple syrup drizzle.

A Brooklyn couple was married by a huge Hellmann's mayo jar in Vegas that you have to see to believe.
After winning a Hellman's contest, the couple received $5000 toward their wedding, complete with chicken tender towers and a huge Manny Mayo officiant. Nick Phillips and Heather Schroering share many passions, but one of their earliest—and most fervent—agreements was this: a dry sandwich is a crime. So when the self-proclaimed 'condiment sommeliers' exchanged vows, it was only fitting that the officiant wasn't a judge or a minister, but a mayonnaise mascot. The Brooklyn-based couple became the lucky winners of a Hellmann's contest celebrating the brand's new Chicken Tender Dips. Their prize package? A Viva Las Vegas chapel ceremony led by Manny Mayo himself, followed by a reception piled high with chicken tender towers and a seemingly bottomless supply of dipping sauces. The Hellman's mayo wedding A professional photographer documented the day, and the couple received $5,000 toward travel expenses. 'When a friend told us about the contest, it felt like it was written for us,' says Schroering, 34, a journalist and founder of the indie production studio No Smiling, in an interview with People. The pair, who jokingly call themselves 'The Saucemans,' have turned their love of dips into a personal tradition. 'For as long as we've been together, I've given Nick a sauce ornament for Christmas,' Schroering went on to explain. 'The first one I made by hand was Hellmann's mayo.' After sending in their application, they struggled to imagine getting married any other way. When the call came on July 2 confirming they'd been selected, 'we just started screaming and jumping up and down,' recalls Phillips, 41. Their loved ones barely batted an eye. 'Nobody asked questions when we invited them to watch us get married in Vegas by a giant jar of mayo,' says Schroering. 'Sixty people booked flights instantly. It's very on-brand for us.' In a twist of fate, their wedding date—July 21—also happened to be Phillips' birthday. With less than three weeks to plan, the couple dove into preparations: choosing wedding looks, setting up a honeymoon fund on Zola, and finalizing their guest list. The couple said they had all signed a waiver agreeing to waive their 'moral rights," according to the Wall Street Journal, allowing Hellman's to photograph, film and turn the couple into optical illusions if it wanted to. With Hellmann's managing most of the logistics, the couple simply rode the wave of their newfound title: the brand's 'tender-loving couple.' Solve the daily Crossword

SpaceX astronauts return to Earth after relieving stuck Boeing pilots from International Space Station
Four astronauts returned to Earth on Saturday after hustling to the International Space Station five months ago to relieve the stuck test pilots of Boeing's Starliner. Their SpaceX capsule parachuted into the Pacific off the Southern California coast a day after departing the orbiting lab. 'Welcome home,' SpaceX Mission Control radioed. Advertisement 4 Four astronauts returned to Earth after relieving the stuck test pilots of Boeing's Starliner. AP 4 SpaceX capsule with the four astronauts parachutes into the Pacific Ocean off the Southern California coast. AP Splashing down were NASA's Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, Japan's Takuya Onishi and Russia's Kirill Peskov. They launched in March as replacements for the two NASA astronauts assigned to Starliner's botched demo. 4 The group included Russia's Kirill Peskov, NASA's Nichole Ayers, Anne McClain and Japan's Takuya Onishi. NASA Advertisement Starliner malfunctions kept Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams at the space station for more than nine months instead of a week. NASA ordered Boeing's new crew capsule to return empty and switched the pair to SpaceX. They left soon after McClain and her crew arrived to take their places. Wilmore has since retired from NASA.

NASA/AFP via Getty Images Advertisement Before leaving the space station on Friday, McClain made note of 'some tumultuous times on Earth' with people struggling. 'We want this mission, our mission, to be a reminder of what people can do when we work together, when we explore together,' she said. McClain looked forward to 'doing nothing for a couple of days' once back home in Houston. High on her crewmates' wish list: hot showers and juicy burgers. Advertisement It was SpaceX's third Pacific splashdown with people on board, but the first for a NASA crew in 50 years. Elon Musk's company switched capsule returns from Florida to California's coast earlier this year to reduce the risk of debris falling on populated areas. Back-to-back private crews were the first to experience Pacific homecomings. The last time NASA astronauts returned to the Pacific from space was during the 1975 Apollo-Soyuz mission, a détente meet-up of Americans and Soviets in orbit.

Lions' Morice Norris shares good news after he was taken off field in ambulance
DETROIT (AP) — Detroit Lions safety Morice Norris shared a social post Saturday, saying he's OK and thanking people for their support after he was taken off the field in an ambulance late in a preseason game against the Atlanta Falcons. Norris reposted a screenshot about being grateful along with a Bible verse, adding a message of his own. 'Amen Amen,' he posted on his Instagram story. 'I'm all good man don't stress," he said, adding he appreciates all of the check-ins and support. Norris was in stable condition late Friday night after he was attended to for about 20 minutes by medical personnel and taken to an Atlanta hospital. The 24-year-old Norris was hurt with 14:50 left in the preseason game after hitting Falcons running back Nathan Carter. He hit Carter with his facemask facing the running back's midsection and his head snapped back after assisting on the tackle. When play resumed, Atlanta quarterback Emory Jones snapped the ball as players from both teams stood at the line of scrimmage as the clock continued to run. 'Usually you see a couple trainers out there,' Lions quarterback Kyle Allen said. 'It's never good when they bring out the stretchers." With 6:31 remaining in the fourth quarter, an official announced the game had been suspended 'per New York' with the Lions leading the Falcons 17-10. Detroit coach Dan Campbell and Atlanta coach Raheem Morris made the decision to not finish the game. 'Raheem Morris is a class act,' Campbell said. 'He's the ultimate class act. We agreed it just didn't feel right to finish that game.' Norris, a former Fresno State standout, played in eight games last season after earning a spot on the team as an undrafted rookie. NFL preseason games ended early in consecutive weeks two years ago. New England's game at Green Bay in Week 2 of the 2023 preseason was called off when Patriots cornerback Isaiah Bolden was carted off in the fourth quarter. Bolden appeared to collide with teammate Calvin Munson while attempting to make a hit on a pass completion to Malik Heath of the Packers. Bolden was taken to a hospital and released the next day. A week later, a game between Miami and Jacksonville was not completed after Dolphins receiver Daewood Davis was carted off in the fourth quarter. Davis was hurt when he ran a slant route and was attempting to catch a pass when he was hit by Jaguars linebacker Dequan Jackson. Davis was released from the hospital a day later. The two frightening injuries happened some eight months after Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin went into cardiac arrest and had to be resuscitated on the field during a regular-season game at Cincinnati in January 2023. Hamlin has enjoyed a remarkable recovery and resumed football the following season and spent last year as a Bills starter. 'You sign up for football and you understand the risk, you understand the injury risk,' Allen said. 'You never think something like that is going to happen. At the end of the day we're all out here as football players. We may be on 32 different teams but we've all played football our whole lives and had our own injuries and been through it.' ___
