Hall of Fame baseball broadcaster Bob Uecker, the longtime play-by-play voice of the Milwaukee Brewers, died on Thursday at the age of 90 after a battle with small cell lung cancer.
The loss of Uecker is a massive one for the baseball community (and for sports broadcasting as a while) as the legendary voice called Brewers games for over five decades. Uecker retired as the voice of the Brewers last season, over twenty years after he was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY.
