The 6 Best Bob Uecker Major League Quotes to Remember After the Legend’s Death

We all grieve together the loss of Bob Uecker on Thursday, with Mr. Baseball, who dies at age 90 after an incredible life that included an MLB stint, the Brewers’ play-by-play job and an acting career.

And it’s the last one we want to focus on here, in which Uecker plays the iconic Harry Doyle Major League series of films. He’s the Cleveland play-by-play man who added so much color (and sarcasm) to the hapless team turning things around.

So let’s go through some of his best quotes from Major League and Major League 2:

“Just a little outside!” and “Ball four! Ball eight!”

“Listen to the roar of the crowd…”

“Don’t worry, no one’s listening anyway.”
