Uecker Asks ‘Where’s the Booze?’ Visiting Hawk
Bob Uecker does not make many road trips any more. Sadly, he’s getting up there in age, and it’s hard to be on the road that often. Uecker did make the trip to Chicago this weekend and will be joining the team in Cleveland and Philadelphia. Much of the reason for tagging along this road trip was to say goodbye to longtime White Sox broadcaster Ken ‘Hawk’ Harrelson who will be retiring at years’ end. Ueck visited the booth on Sunday afternoon and added a classic line at the end of the it.

This is classic Uecker. Guy just loves to have fun, and I’m pretty sure he doesn’t drink pops anymore in the booth yet who knows. I think that was a thing of the past where announcers would have a beer or two before the game like Jim Brockmire. These two guys have seen in all in the big leagues. I hate to think what a Uecker retirement will be, but trust me, people will go all out for it. He’s beloved in
