## Summary

The Milwaukee Brewers’ first World Series title prompted players and manager Pat Murphy to honour Bob Uecker, the team’s longtime broadcaster who died in January 2025. Captain Christian Yelich said he wished Uecker could have witnessed the victory, adding that the team had kept him close in their hearts.

Uecker called Brewers games for 54 seasons, from 1971 to 2024, and had a close bond with Yelich. Murphy recalled a joking text from Uecker about helping the team in earlier playoff rounds before telling players they had made the city and state proud as Milwaukee’s first world champions.
