A genuinely funny man and a great announcer. Who among us hasn't said, "Just a bit outside." at least once?
I just watched this Tonight Show clip, "genuinely funny" is an understatement. He takes a minute or so to warm up but after that he just kills it.
The card of a card on the Cards.
He will be missed.

Liked him a lot. RIP.
RiP ~ Uecker
That is a loss.
I have that baseball card! The greatest mediocre baseball player of all time. A great wit and a true hero. Like him, I am - in my advanced years - a shadow of the player I never was. But, like a fool, I keep on playing.
Ride OnQ! Bob was a great Baseball Personality.
A lot of fun—seemed like a good guy.

You can never sum up what Uecker means to Wisconsin, either. It goes beyond being "soundtrack of the summer." He was -- is -- remains -- "Gemütlichkeit" made flesh. The spirit of the good life. He'll remain alive there like Davy Crockett in Texas.
