The Milwaukee Brewers are World Series champions for the first time, but perhaps the most iconic figure in franchise history was not here to call it.

Bob Uecker, who called Brewers games for over 50 years, died in January 2025 at the age of 90. His presence, though, has continued to loom large.

Fox shared a tribute they put together soundtracking Uecker's iconic voice and calls with 2026 Brewers action.
