Brewers Manager Pat Murphy's Former College Players Say His MLB Success Hasn't Surprised Them
- On Friday, the Milwaukee Brewers face the Tampa Bay Rays in the World Series, led by manager Pat Murphy, whose team reached its first championship series since 1982.
- Authenticity defines Murphy's coaching approach according to former players; Mike Moshier, who played for him at Notre Dame from 1986-89, recalls Murphy's unpredictable nature—he could be "funny, comic, sarcastic" or "really serious, really demanding."
- The "mud chart" Murphy designed for Notre Dame's 1989 team exemplifies his coaching intensity, tracking 45 innings across five consecutive wins that earned the Irish an elusive NCAA Tournament berth.
- Former player Craig Counsell, who later managed the Brewers, described Murphy as "authentic" last month, saying the manager encourages players to simply be themselves on the field.
- Leading with the same intensity developed 40 years ago, Murphy approaches the World Series at nearly 68 years old; having survived a heart attack in 2020, he remains focused on the Brewers' pursuit.
