Brewers baseball will never be the same.....Uke was the sound of Milwaukee summer.

I honestly thought he was gone years ago

theclevermonkey.bsky.social•133 days ago

Just a bit outside.

evasuncle.bsky.social•133 days ago

Just a bit outside.

Imagine him and David Lynch meeting up to shoot the breeze somewhere in an ethereal expanse...

You gotta love the guy who came up with the idea of clear acrylic hockey pucks!

fritzdrybeam.bsky.social•134 days ago

Ah, baseball.
The clinical cure for insomnia.
Like all Amerikkkan sport, just a filler, between the advertisements.

That man has made me laugh as much as 20 top comedians combined. His wit was so quick.

RIP, Bob Uecker. What a wonderful sense of humor you had.
You were a joy to watch and listen to.
Hope your next seat is . . in the front row!

fnwy.bsky.social•134 days ago

Rest in Peace. I loved it when he said that the best way to catch a knuckleball was to wait until it stopped rolling and then pick it up.

jengomes.bsky.social•132 days ago

That was hilarious! So that clip yesterday on Carson.

j3bster.bsky.social•133 days ago

He was so good for MLB.

pjpuckrr.bsky.social•134 days ago

A great loss for MLB. Mr Baseball finally hit one over the fence and going home.
RIP Bob Uecker

Stan Lee, this baseball dude and yet tRump gets to stink up the white house after a lifetime of crime.

cmcurran75.bsky.social•133 days ago

He was truly an original

RIP Bob ❤️

dermann51.bsky.social•133 days ago

The best. Grew up in Wisconsin at the start of his broadcasting career. He is a state icon.

louwholady.bsky.social•133 days ago

He was really one of the good ones.

mtj333.bsky.social•134 days ago

I the early 80s I was a board operator at a radio station that carried Brewer games. Bob and Merle Harmon were such a great announcing team. I fell in love with baseball.

dermann51.bsky.social•133 days ago

They'd wander the Milwaukee County Stadium parking lot tailgating with the fans. I was one of them.

markesienko.bsky.social•133 days ago

As good a person in all aspects of his life as he was in the baseball world,...

jengomes.bsky.social•132 days ago

And he was so naturally funny.

raylh.bsky.social•134 days ago

The legend

theoptimisticcynic.bsky.social•134 days ago

I've been quoting that for a loooong time. 😊😳 I'm old.

direwolf54.bsky.social•134 days ago

Above all, he seemed like a very decent man

Rest In Peace Bob

suey800.bsky.social•133 days ago

Hope he is in the front row

steved1.bsky.social•134 days ago

There’s a lot more laughter in baseball heaven today.

shadrachula.bsky.social•132 days ago

It’s especially poignant that by his own design, he painted himself as a Rodney Dangerfield lovable loser…and wound up seeing the last game he called with his beloved Brewers blowing it in the 9th inning of a decisive game.
