Greenville New Bern Washington, NC, October 25, 2026 —
Milwaukee Brewers manager Pat Murphy made a joke about pitcher Quinn after the team’s charter flight arrived in Florida for World Series Game 3, according to the information provided. Murphy quipped that he had not realized Quinn possessed a knuckleball, a playful reference to the pilot, who was Quinn’s uncle.
The remark linked the pitcher’s name to the flight’s pilot. The summary does not provide Murphy’s exact words, so the comment is presented here as a paraphrase rather than a direct quotation. It also does not indicate that Quinn actually throws a knuckleball; the pitch was part of Murphy’s joke.
Further details about the trip and the exchange were not provided. The account does not identify Quinn by a full name, specify when the flight arrived, name the Florida airport or the Game 3 venue, or describe the circumstances in which Murphy made the remark. It also does not include statements from Quinn or the pilot.
No information was provided about the game’s result or what happened after the team arrived. The reported moment is limited to Murphy’s quip and the family connection between Quinn and the pilot. Without additional details, the remark’s precise wording and the broader context around the exchange remain unclear.
