I want to take a few minutes to tell you about my good friend, Bob Uecker. I should preface these remarks by noting that my personal interactions with Bob were very, very limited, and he likely did not remember any of them. But that does not matter, because he and I spent countless hours together…just apart.
Paul Skenes, Elly De La Cruz and Gunnar Henderson will grace the cover of "MLB The Show 25," marking the first time three athletes received the honor, the game's producers announced Tuesday.
Others recognized the legend at Marcus Theatres. They are showing the classic movie "Major League," in the film, Uecker plays broadcaster Harry Doyle. "I went on the first day on Friday to see it, you know, because I love Bob Uecker," said Margaret Roushar, who saw the film.
Bob Uecker was the light of the Milwaukee Brewers, the soundtrack of their summers, the laughter in their hearts, and his passing is a profound loss.
