Bob Uecker is a national treasure.

As a resident of Wisconsin , one of the most promising and delightful signs of Spring is Uecker's voice on the air .

Same thought. Always tell my wife, the winter isn't over until I hear Uecker

Back in the "80's" during the Brewers haydays, my family and I would sit in the outfield bleacher "cheap seats" with a radio and listen to Uecker announce the game. He always made me laugh with his antics. Thank you Bob. I still enjoy listening to him when he does the Brewers home games now. I'm also from Wisconsin.

Bob Uecker is on my top ten list of people I would love to meet.

"Met up with him" at Karls Country Market in Menomonee Falls, WI. He was coming out. I was going in. I waved and said "Hey Bob!" and he said "Hey" back.

And when the Brewers won a playoff game the Brewers team liked him so much they gave him a portion of the winnings but he donated it to charity, We love Ueck in the Milwaukee area.

He was the perfect announcer, was so funny, added that little extra to the movie.😊

Dude is a treasure

What a great guy, it's really a joy to listen his calls

When I went to the US to learn English in the eighties, I got to listen to those great play by play guys like Scully, Caray and Uecker, of course, besides others. I'm a radio guy myself, I prefer to listen to the games on the radio, and to listen to those legends call their games was really great. Thank you for sharing this great video 👍

I love baseball on the radio , and Uke is still the best .

The ball 4,8,12 thing just really got me . He is that character. That had to be the easiest money for working he made in his life.

His sense of humor… wow… omg He’s saying jokes but totally serious with a straight face. Makes it even funnier! He kills me

Nobody could have done it better then Bob

Bob Eucker is baseball at its greatest.

I attended a bachelor party dinner at the famous Scottsdale restaurant Don & Charlie's in 2001 Spring training. Halfway through dinner that including fried frog legs, we realized that Euk and his lady were a few table away. Baseball celeb sightings at D&C's were common, but we all loved Euk when we were 70's baseball yoots, long before the movie came out. After several minutes of a dozen 35 year old's giggling we realized that no, we're not going over en masse to yell just a bit outside at him. He noticed our colloquy but seemed unfazed by it since a) he's one of America's most beloved and recognizable spirit animals and b) we left him alone until we were leaving. He then appeared to notice were leaving & allowed us to come over and say hello, which we did quickly/respectfully which he appreciated and graciously returned, even though he was in a place and time where he's universally popular and recognizable. James Hetfield hanging out at CBGB's at 8pm on a weeknight. That's my Bob Euk story.

Bob uecker only hit 14 home runs in his career, but 4 of them were off future hall of famers. Rollie Fingers, Gaylord Perry, Sandy Kofax, and Fergie Jenkins.

That is more then 14 that I hit.

Ah the hell with it❤😂

In my APBA Baseball 1966 season replay, Uek crushed a walkoff grand slam at home (he was with the Phillies) against the Astros, AFTER Bob Aspromonte of the 'stros crushed a grand slam to to take the lead in the top of the 8th. Next day, Uek is shagging flies in the outfield. With a tuba...

I still say " I must be in the front row"

He was so good in this.

"Get up - get up - get outta here - gone!" - another classic Ueckerism behind the mic

Ilove those days do much movies today just arent funny like this anymore ❤😊thx for the memories ❤😊

Truly one of a kind.

Never gets old

Having been born and grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, the humor is juuust a little bit more funny.

The flick of JD behind the ear still gets me.

Such a beautiful human being

Love Bob ❤️

He deserved an Oscar. Seriously. The Academy should re-think its attitude toward comedies.

He's on my Mount Rushmore!

I love this guy

I bet he had fun doing the movie and what a great movie too

Class act for sure! ❤❤

Love Bob Uecker.

He was a quadruple-A player, certainly, but the fact that your skills as a player are enough to GET you into the big leagues, even if they weren't enough to keep you there, means you're in the top 1% of the entire world.

One hit? That's all we got? One God-damn hit?

You can't say that on the air. Who cares it is not like anyone is listening.

😂I'd like to see Bob and Buzz do SNL news.

He should copyright just a bit outside since bob uecker say it all the time❤😊

Most Quotable lines about sports in films are from Him in Major League and Bill Murray in Caddyshack....

Thanks Bob. You done good!

Harry Doyle....priceless..n the miller commercials...

What a legend and class act

Classic!

"...I must be in the front rowwww."

Lived in Milwaukee (east side) growing up (a few years younger than Bob). My cub scouts den leader was the wife of the Braves traveling secretary (he was a dwarf). I remember Bob mostly due to him having to catch Phil Niekro. I think that was in Torre’s contract; not having to catch Phil.

Bob uecker is Mr baseball and how do I love that man

"Another day, another collar."

The Gorilla Suit and Howard Cosell. Good stuff. Thanks, Dad.

Hilarous. Love him

MLB should have an annual Harry Doyle Day when commentators are allowed to say what they really think.

Maybe it should be called thr outofstater instead of the Terminator ❤😂

😅Bob made the mundane exciting. And his Humor was second to none.

Don Carter is (was) an actual pro bowler for those of you who might wonder if he just made that up lol.

I dont remember who they asked first, if it was Harry Caray or Vin Scully but they declined...and the rest is history

He ad libs as well as Robin Williams did

"Front row!"

He was in wrestlemania andre the giant choked him in a interview for show

lol when i drank i drank vo, me and my pops lol

Every time I see a pitcher throw a really bad pitch, I use the line, "Just a bit outside!"

Yeah, he did all that shit.

I say that the guys when they're banking a ball playing pool and they miss badly

Audio dharma

The movie would have been way different if he wasn’t in it

Sad to see the Cleveland Indians r a thing of the past , the new name is just plain awful 😮
