Milwaukee Brewers Clinch MLB Playoffs, Read Bob Uecker Letter

The Milwaukee Brewers became the first MLB team to clinch a playoff berth in 2025 after a thrilling extra-inning win against the St. Louis Cardinals, marking their seventh postseason appearance in eight years. Following the victory, Brewers manager Pat Murphy read an emotional letter attributed to the late broadcaster Bob Uecker, who passed away earlier in the year, expressing pride and encouragement for the team. Uecker, a beloved figure in Milwaukee baseball history and the team's longtime radio voice, conveyed his support from beyond, urging the players to enjoy the moment, believe in each other, and play hard every night. The Brewers currently hold the best record in baseball and lead the NL Central by a significant margin, positioning them as strong contenders with a likely first-round playoff bye. The team and fans alike are hopeful that this postseason run could finally end their four-decade-long World Series drought dating back to 1982. The heartfelt tribute and the team’s performance underscore the deep connection between the Brewers’ past and present as they aim for championship glory.
