The Milwaukee Brewers staged a celebration of life for Bob Uecker on Sunday, honoring the Hall of Fame broadcaster who called the club’s games for 54 seasons before his death on Jan. 16 at age 90. The pre-game ceremony at American Family Field was led by former NBC colleague Bob Costas and featured tributes from former MLB Commissioner Bud Selig and Hall of Famers George Brett, Ted Simmons and Robin Yount, among others. Uecker’s family joined Brewers players on the field as Bob Uecker Jr. delivered the ceremonial first pitch to Yount. The team wore special uniforms emblazoned with “UECK” in place of player names, and game balls and bases carried commemorative markings. American Family Field’s broadcast wing was formally renamed the Bob Uecker Broadcast Center, while concourse exhibits displayed the broadcaster’s photographs and trademark plaid sport coats. Speakers recalled Uecker’s quick wit, national fame from talk-show and film appearances, and, above all, his skill as a play-by-play announcer. “Most of the country knows him for his humor, but as a radio voice he was Hall-of-Fame calibre,” Selig said. The memorial came as the Brewers, owners of baseball’s best record, hosted the San Francisco Giants, offering fans and players a moment to recognize the man many regard as the franchise’s enduring voice.
