Milwaukee Brewers play-by-play broadcaster Jeff Levering first shared a booth with Bob Uecker in 2015. The first 10 years of his major league career overlapped with the last of Uecker's 54. Baseball's last crossover celebrity broadcaster died Thursday at age 90.

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.

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.

For much of his time owning the New York Yankees, George Steinbrenner got what he wanted. Unfortunately for The Boss, Bob Uecker wasn’t for sale. On Wednesday, Yankees TV announcer Michael Kay revealed that Steinbrenner tried luring Uecker away from Milwaukee “a few times” on his self-titled mid-day show on ESPN New York.

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.

Bob Uecker, longtime Milwaukee Brewers broadcaster known as "Mr. Baseball," died at the age of 90. Born and raised in Milwaukee, he spent six seasons as a catcher in the MLB. He later went on to become a Hall of Fame announcer for his hometown team.

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

Uecker entertained fans in the booth, but also found success on the diamond as a member of the world champion 1964 St. Louis Cardinals and the silver screen, having starred in numerous Hollywood films.

The San Francisco Giants have a big lesson to learn on how to treat their broadcasters from the Brewers and Bob Uecker, writes SFGATE columnist.
