Two of Bob Uecker’s claims to fame — baseball and acting — came together brilliantly in one famous line: “Juuuust a bit outside!” It was the combination of humor and great broadcasting that made him one of America’s great personalities.

Milwaukee fans could listen to Bob Uecker broadcast Brewers games for over a half-century. But he showed off his play-by-play skills — and comedic talent — for more of a national audience when he appeared in the 1989 classic “Major League” as Cleveland announcer Harry Doyle.

To us, he's a broadcaster, but nationally, most may know Bob Uecker by a different name: Harry Doyle. These quotes from 'Major League' live forever.

Major League' was the first acting role ever for Skip Griparis, who played the soft-spoken sidekick to Bob Uecker's memorable Harry Doyle character.

The journeyman catcher and award-winning sports commentator, known by many as "Mr. Baseball," was diagnosed with small-cell lung cancer in 2023.
