Mr Baseball, Bob Uecker Dies

[thinde]

Labeled Mr. Baseball by Jonny Carson, he went from a mediocre baseball career to a very successful bit part actor. I remember all of the Lite beer commercials and the announcer in the movie Major League. He always put a smile on my face, RIP Bob.

“Coach told me to use a lighter bat. Not to get around on fastballs, but so it wouldn’t be as heavy when I carried it back to the dugout.” – Bob Uecker

Loved those Miller Lite commercials, and he was pretty damn funny in Mr. Belvedere. One of my favorites though, was his baseball HOF induction speech.
