Baseball icon and hall of famer dies aged 90

Bob Uecker, the voice of his hometown who after a short playing career earned the moniker 'Mr. Baseball' and honors from the Hall of Fame, has died at the age of 90.

The team announced Uecker died on Thursday morning, calling it 'one of the most difficult days in Milwaukee Brewers history.' In a statement released by the club, Uecker´s family said he had battled small cell lung since early 2023.

'Even in the face of this challenge, his enthusiasm for life was always present, never allowing his spirit to falter,' the family said.
