Pocket pancakes? Milwaukee 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 news 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 a chicken tender and topped with chopped bacon and a maple syrup drizzle.

Bucks sign best remaining unrestricted free agent in surprise move
Bucks sign best remaining unrestricted free agent in surprise move originally appeared on The Sporting News The Milwaukee Bucks have shocked the world once again, sweeping in to sign the best remaining free agent at this fairly late stage of the summer. According to Shams Charania of ESPN, Milwaukee has inked former L.A. Clippers swingman Amir Coffey to a one-season deal. According to The Athletic's Eric Nehm, Coffey is only signing for a non-guaranteed training camp deal, meaning he will be competing for a roster spot. This is a bit of a stunner, as Coffey could probably outplay $22.4 million starting small forward Kyle Kuzma right now. The 6-foot-7 former Minnesota Golden Gopher, 28, hds spent all six of his pro seasons with the L.A. Clippers prior to this move. He enjoyed a breakout season on the 50-32 Clippers last year, as a 3-and-D release valve off the bench. Should he make the team's roster, Coffey could potentially unseat Gary Trent Jr. or Kumza for either the starting shooting guard or small forward role. He is a legitimate catch-and-shoot wing who can effectively defend, the kind of player Milwaukee thought it was adding in Prince last summer, but one with more upside and aggression. We're not saying the Bucks are adding Bruce Bowen on a minimum deal, but Coffey has room to grow and is the exact kind of perimeter piece the Bucks needed (well, in fairness, they also need a starting-caliber point guard). In 72 healthy games last year (13 starts), Coffey averaged a career-best 9.7 points on .471/.409/.891 shooting splits, plus 2.2 rebounds, 1.1 assists, and 0.6 steals a night. Coffey helps round out a solid summer recovery plan for general manager Jon Horst, after the team lost its second-best player (and likely second-best trade asset), nine-time All-Star point guard Damian Lillard, to an Achilles tendon tear in this spring's playoffs. That injury is one of the most brutal in the league, and will likely sideline Lillard for the entire 2025-26 season. Given that All-NBA Bucks superstar power forward Giannis Antetokounmpo is clearly growing impatient with his team's three consecutive first-round playoff exits, Horst clearly felt he could ill afford to let Lillard languish on the bench all year. So he opted to stretch-and-waive the 35-year-old, who went on to sign with the Portland Trail Blazers instead. Horst used the added cap room to sign 3-and-D former Indiana Pacers starting center Myles Turner, fresh off a Finals run. He also brought in former Orlando Magic free agent guards Cole Anthony and Gary Harris, beyond re-signing some essential Bucks role players to below-market deals. Now, Coffey's signing is the latest nice bit of business for Horst. These new pieces aren't going to be enough to vault Milwaukee into championship contention, per se, but if some of the minimum signings pop, there's a chance the Bucks will be able to package them into a deal to offload, say, the Kuzma contract for a true floor-raising complementary role player.

Cubs call up top prospect Owen Caissie, who got robbed of an extra-base hit in his first at-bat
Though the Chicago Cubs have fallen behind the Milwaukee Brewers in the National League Central, Chicago remains one of the best teams in baseball. The team sits at 68-51 entering Thursday and holds the top wild-card spot in the NL. But after running out one of the best offenses in baseball during the entire first half, the Cubs are scuffling at the plate. The team's 96 wRC+ — an advanced stat which measures offensive performance — ranks just 21st over the past 30 days. The team's entire outfield, in particular, is a big reason for that regression in August. Help is on the way, though. With the team struggling at the plate, the Cubs called up top prospect Owen Caissie ahead of Thursday's game, the team confirmed. [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] It's unclear where Caissie will play considering the Cubs usually rely on Pete Crow-Armstrong, Ian Happ and Kyle Tucker as their starting outfield, with Seiya Suzuki serving as the team's regular designated hitter. For at least one game, however, Caissie will take Suzuki's spot. The rookie served as the team's designated hitter and batted fifth in his major-league debut. Both Suzuki and Crow-Armstrong were out of the lineup Thursday, though neither player is injured. They were likely just getting extra rest after recent slumps. Caissie will make his major-league debut in his home country. Caissie was born in Burlington, Canada, and the Cubs are finishing up a series against the Toronto Blue Jays on Thursday. Caissie may have been called up Thursday so he could make his major-league debut in front of friends and family in Canada. Burlington is a little over an hour drive from Toronto. Unfortunately for Caissie, Blue Jays outfielder Davis Schneider didn't care about any of that. Caissie looked to have an extra-base hit in his first major-league at-bat, but was robbed of it after a diving catch by Schneider in left field. While Caissie has shown strong power potential and posted excellent walk rates, strikeouts remain an issue for the slugger. Despite his success this season, Caissie is striking out in 28 percent of his plate appearances, a troublesome total for a minor-league player. Swing and miss issues have always been a promise for Caissie, but they haven't stopped him from appearing on top of prospect lists. Baseball Prospectus has listed Caissie on its top-101 prospect list for four straight years. Both Baseball America and ranked Caissie on their own lists the past two years. As expected, Caissie took the roster spot of catcher Miguel Amaya, who returned to action from an injury Wednesday, but needed to be carted off the field due to a left ankle injury. It's unclear how the Cubs plan to utilize Caissie and the rest of the team's outfielders the rest of the way. But with the team's postseason hopes looking strong, working Caissie in sporadically and letting him acclimate to the majors now could pay dividends if the rookie can play his way onto the postseason roster in October.
