Uek's last ballgame ended with a Pete Alonzo home run. I didn't have the TV so I got to listen to this call. I'm not crying, you're crying.

This was Bob Uecker’s last words on the Brewers broadcast. It hurts even more now.

Bob Uecker felt this loss.

"Well, New York, down. They did it. And The Crew will uh, will have it end, here tonight."

When I went to a Brewers game in 2017 with my buddy and his son, I should have asked his godson, who was the senior scout for the Brewers, to have him take me up to see the Ueck.  

To Bob!  

Man you made me laugh on and off the field.

At university I got to play the butler in Huis Clos from Sartre.  The concept behind that play still haunts me to this day.

Oh no. That's hard news to learn. The man's vision was a bit warped but he had genius.

So now there's a very special place where Lynch and Uecker are having a conversation and terrifying everyone within earshot.

Holy crap that's a double whammy!
