Bob Uecker, whose voice resonated through Milwaukee and beyond, passed away at 90 after battling small cell lung cancer, leaving a legendary legacy for baseball fans.
His family noted, 'Even in the face of this challenge, his enthusiasm for life was always present, never allowing his spirit to falter,' showcasing his indomitable character.
Manager Pat Murphy honored Uecker post-NL Central title announcement, stating, 'There is no one who epitomizes a champion the way this man does right here.'
Uecker humorously reflected on his playing career: 'Career highlights? I had two. I got an intentional walk from Sandy Koufax and I got out of a rundown.'
