Peoria Bloomington, IL, October 25, 2026 —
Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy made a humorous remark about the pilot of the team’s charter flight to Florida for World Series Game 3, according to the information provided. Murphy quipped that he did not know the pilot, who is the uncle of pitcher Quinn, threw a knuckleball.
The summary does not include Murphy’s exact words, so the remark is described here without quotation marks. It also does not provide the pilot’s name, identify pitcher Quinn beyond that first name, or explain when Murphy made the comment. No further details about the flight or the pilot’s baseball experience were provided.
The information places the remark in connection with the Brewers’ charter flight to Florida for Game 3 of the World Series. It does not state the date or destination city, describe the circumstances of the trip, or provide additional context about the team’s plans. The summary also does not say whether Murphy’s comment was made publicly or identify an interview, event or other setting in which it was shared.
Beyond the knuckleball reference and the family connection to pitcher Quinn, no further information about the pilot was included. The available account does not indicate whether the pilot has played baseball, how long he has flown for the team, or whether Murphy had met him before the trip. Those details cannot be established from the summary.
The account is limited to Murphy’s humorous observation and the basic details of the flight and family relationship. No additional statements from Murphy, the pilot or the Brewers were provided, and the summary does not describe what happened after the remark.
