Pocket pancakes? Brewers selling ballpark flapjacks after Pat Murphy's viral moment

MILWAUKEE (AP) — 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.

Murphy was asked before Friday's game what he thought of the promotion.

“A little late, we've been doing this since 2017,” said Murphy, noting he occasionally has been keeping food in his pocket for about that long. “I guess I never did it during an interview (before). It used to be mostly bagels. I had bagels in the morning. ... I'd always have one (at) day games usually - a bagel, a waffle, a pancake rolled up, something. Day games, the day gets away from you and need a little something."

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 then.

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 last week. “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.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado met with U.S. President Donald Trump, presenting him with her Nobel Peace Prize medal and praising his support for Venezuelan democracy, even as Trump has signaled a willingness to work with the country’s acting president.

As Machado was in Washington, acting President Delcy Rodríguez delivered her first state of the union address in Caracas, calling for reforms to Venezuela’s state-run oil industry aimed at attracting foreign investment following the removal of former President Nicolás Maduro. The former vice president also outlined a distinct vision for the future between the two historic adversaries, straying from her predecessors, who have long railed against American intervention in Venezuela.
