The Milwaukee Brewers’ first World Series title meant the world to their loyal fans, and would have meant the world to the late, beloved broadcaster Bob Uecker. Uecker was the Brewers’ radio broadcaster for 54 seasons, from 1971 to 2024, and became a Brewers legend. He died at age 90 in January 2025. Brewers captain Christian Yelich was particularly close to Uecker and offered a touching tribute after the team’s World Series victory. “He’s smiling, man.
