The Milwaukee Brewers are bringing manager Pat Murphy's strange eating habits to fans.
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 (70-44).
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.

Cubs starting pitcher Cade Horton exits with blister in 3rd inning against Brewers

CHICAGO (AP) — Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Cade Horton exited with a finger blister in the third inning against the Milwaukee Brewers on Monday. Horton surrendered a solo home run to Brice Turang in the third and then allowed three of the next four Brewers batters to reach base. Reliever Drew Pomeranz replaced Horton with two outs and the bases loaded. He retired Blake Perkins to limit Milwaukee's advantage to just 1-0. The team said the blister was on Horton's right middle finger. In 2 2/3 innings, Horton gave up four hits, one walk and a hit-by-pitch. The right-hander finished with three strikeouts. Chicago started Horton in the first game of a Monday doubleheader. The first pitch of the nightcap is slated for 7:05 p.m. CT. Horton, 24, entered the day with a 7-3 record and an ERA of 3.07. ___ AP MLB:

Brewers Manager Reveals What He Really Thinks of Cubs Amid Division Race

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Milwaukee Brewers have gone on a historic run to erase a 6 1/2-game deficit to the Chicago Cubs in the National League Central. The Brewers started a stretch of five straight games against the Cubs on Monday. The Cubs entered the series trailing the Brewers by eight games in the division, and suddenly, it's the Cubs who may be seen as underdogs in the division. The Cubs may be long shots to win the division now, but Brewers manager Pat Murphy does not like them being viewed as an underdog. MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN - APRIL 30: Manager Pat Murphy #21 of the Milwaukee Brewers argues with home plate umpire Chris Guccione #68 before being thrown out of the game in the sixth inning against the Tampa... MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN - APRIL 30: Manager Pat Murphy #21 of the Milwaukee Brewers argues with home plate umpire Chris Guccione #68 before being thrown out of the game in the sixth inning against the Tampa Bay Rays at American Family Field on April 30, 2024 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. More"They have all-stars, MVP candidates, veterans, gold glove winners, world champions," said Murphy, per ESPN's Jesse Rogers. "What don't they have? They're not the underdogs. Trust me." The reality is, the Brewers are still outmatched in payroll by the Cubs, and came into the season regarded as underdogs to win the division. Despite winning the division last year, the Brewers' losses in the offseason made them seemingly unlikely to repeat as NL Central champions. The Brewers lost Willy Adames and Devin Williams last winter. Meanwhile, the Cubs added a superstar in Kyle Tucker. At the trade deadline, the Cubs made multiple additions, while the Brewers stayed relatively quiet. Even though the Brewers are leading by a wide margin, Murphy does not want his team's underdog mentality to be forgotten. The Brewers roster is full of players who have been designated for assignment, traded or forgotten, but they still have managed to hold the best record in baseball with a little over a month left in the season. Murphy is the reigning National League Manager of the Year. With how his team has played, he may be the favorite to win the award again.

Lionel Messi Called Up to Argentina Squad Ahead of World Cup Qualifiers

Argentina Lionel Messi Called Up to Argentina Squad Ahead of World Cup Qualifiers Updated Aug. 18, 2025 4:15 p.m. ET share facebook x reddit link No surprise here. Lionel Messi will be back in action for Argentina for two matches in September. Led by 38-year-old captain Messi, the team also includes young talents like Real Madrid's recent signing Franco Mastantuono and Manchester City's Claudio Echeverri. Palmeiras striker Jose Manuel Lopez also received his first Argentina callup on Monday for World Cup qualifiers against Venezuela and Ecuador. Lopez caught the eye of coach Lionel Scaloni for his goal-scoring output at Palmeiras, where he joined in 2022 from Lanús. The center forward has 15 goals in 42 matches this year. Argentina will host Venezuela on Sept. 4 at Monumental Stadium in Buenos Aires and visit Ecuador on Sept. 9 in Guayaquil for the final doubleheader of the competition. World champion Argentina has already secured a spot for the 2026 World Cup and leads South American qualifying. Messi returned to action for his club Inter Miami over the weekend following two weeks out with a muscle injury in his right leg. The Albiceleste will be without Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernández, who received a two-match suspension for his sending off against Colombia in June. Instead, Alan Varela, a star of Porto in Portugal, was chosen. The Associated Press recently contributed to this report. What did you think of this story? share
