The baseball world was saddened to learn that Milwaukee Brewers legend and Major League Baseball Hall of Famer Bob Uecker passed away on Thursday at the age of 90.

Bob Uecker was a famously mediocre Major League hitter who discovered that he was much more comfortable at a microphone than home plate. And that was just the start of a second career in entertainment that reached far beyond the ballpark.

Bob Uecker, the legendary voice of the Milwaukee Brewers who was nicknamed “Mr. Baseball,” has died aged 90, the team announced on Thursday.
