Brewers Turn Viral 'Pocket Pancake' Into Postseason Fan Breakfast as Club Nears MLB's Top Seed

The morning giveaway tapped a summer-long meme with Milwaukee tied at 96 wins, one victory from securing home field.

Overview

  • The team hosted a free Postseason Pocket Pancake Breakfast on Friday at American Family Field, offering walk-up and drive-thru service in the Uecker and Yount lots.
  • Murph’s Pocket Pancakes originated from manager Pat Murphy pulling a pancake from his pocket during a live interview earlier this season.
  • Pat Murphy served alongside Wisconsin sports figures Robin Yount, Donald Driver and Derek Watt, with live music from the Tally Ho Polka Band.
  • The first 3,000 attendees received exclusive Pocket Pancake T-shirts, and fans lined up before dawn, including some who drove in from out of town.
  • Milwaukee opens a three-game home series against the Reds on Friday night and can clinch the league’s best regular-season record, home-field advantage and an NLDS start on Oct. 4 with one more win.
