Movie-A-Day #26: Major League (1989).

Bob Uecker may not have made a big splash in the major leagues, but he did in “Major League.” The broadcaster/actor/former athlete/national treasure has had his health problems recently, but luckily he’s still with us. And he turns 75 today. He’s memorable for plenty of TV commercials, acting gigs and public appearances – not to mention for also being a play-by-play announcer for the Milwaukee Brewers – but it’s for “Major League” that he’s best remembered. And rightly so.
