LISTEN: Bob Uecker’s Call of Dan Vogelbach’s Walk-Off Grand Slam
Daniel Vogelbach walked it off for the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday afternoon. It felt like a game where the Brewers were not going to win, but they kept chipping away at the St. Louis Cardinals bullpen. Finally, there was a breakthrough. Jackie Bradley Jr. started the inning with Luke Maile and Jace Peterson coming through with big hits. After Eduardo Escobar walked, Dan Vogelbach pinch-hit and stepped up the plate. He delivered in a big way with a grand slam. Bob Uecker had an amazing call of this one as to be expected. Here it is if you missed it.

There are a couple of people in my life that I want a Brewers’ championship for. Number one is my father. Number two is Uecker. Let him get a title call for once in his broadcasting career. It would be the greatest thing ever. The call would be something out of a movie. He almost was amazed that Vogelbach did that. I asked on Twitter for Vogey to be like Russell Branyan, and he did just that. Thankfully, the homer part, not the strikeout or walk part. What a win for the Brew Crew.
