Breakfast is rooting for the Cubs thanks to this Jake Arrieta pancake
Cubs have breakfast's graces with Arrieta pancake
Baseball fan and amateur breakfast artist Brady Phelps has been raising money for clean water with beautiful -- and remarkably accurate -- pancakes. We first saw this bearded, eye-blacked Bryce Harper facsimile at the end of September:

While Phelps is humble when it comes to his artistry, we're going to christen him as an unofficial spokesman on behalf of breakfast. And now that it's October, Phelps has to answer the question every baseball fan wants answered: Who is Phelps -- and by extension the entire meal of breakfast -- rooting for in the National League Wild Card Game presented by Budweiser? Naturally, he made his allegiances clear with a pancake:
Jake Arrieta is coming for you, Pirates. Let's go @Cubs! Pancake made for @charitywater https://t.co/CaF9jZcd9c pic.twitter.com/Rmw6v95zne

Congratulations, Cubs fans. Your team has the power of the first (and best) meal of the day on its side. Phelps' most recent creation also allows for great jokes. For example:
What do Phelps and his muse Jake Arrieta have in common? They both manipulate batters.
