At his Hall of Fame -induction ceremony in Cooperstown in 2003, Bob Uecker delivered a memorable acceptance speech that in essence was a stand-up comedy act. Forty-four Hall of Fame players on the stage behind him were reduced to tears over Uecker’s self-deprecating humor, and the audience of some 18,000 roared with laughter.

The 1989 baseball comedy filmed in Milwaukee featured Uecker's memorable performance as cynical, and very funny, play-by-play announcer Harry Doyle.

We’re going to constantly be seeing reminders of Bob,” said longtime broadcast partner Jeff Levering, who shared broadcasts with Uecker in 2015.

Uecker, who died Thursday at 90, used to sit in the bullpen at Connie Mack Stadium and deliver play-by-play commentary into a beer cup.

Fans began to line the bottom of Uecker's statue outside the ballpark with cans of Miller Lite in a nod to the legendary announcer.

The baseball community is mourning the loss of Bob Uecker following the death of the longtime Milwaukee Brewers broadcaster at the age of 90.

As a catcher for the Milwaukee Braves, the St. Louis Cardinals and the Philadelphia Phillies, Uecker hit .200 with 14 home runs. As a Brewers catcher in the mid-2000s, Chad Moeller hit .204 with 14 home runs. In Uecker, Moeller said on Thursday, he found a friend who could needle him with sweetness.

"Hit to left and deep—get up, get up, get out of here, gone!" Uecker exclaimed. "Jackson Chourio just hit one with the bases loaded. And they add four more on the rookie's grand slam home run, his 18th of the year. Wow! ... And a standing [ovation] for Jackson Chourio. Wow!"

Uecker, a baseball icon, television and movie funnyman and Hall of Fame Milwaukee Brewers radio announcer, died Thursday at the age of 90.
