Brewers hit a home run with Bob Uecker celebration, but the team's surge of magic has slowed. Plus: A conversation with Kent Sommerfeld (08.25.2025)

from Milwaukee Brewers Microbrew · host Milwaukee Brewers Podcast

The Brewers delivered a sensational tribute to Bob Uecker on Sunday, but it was only a 3-5 week on the field coming off the magical 14-game winning streak. Brewers reporter Curt Hogg and host JR Radcliffe dive into an up-and-down week that saw a 9-game lead in the division dwindle down to five. Should Brewers fans be worried? The Cubs continue to demonstrate that they're a great team, and a bad matchup. What's up with the rotation lately, particularly Jacob Misiorowski after another blowup inning? Joey Ortiz's injury shines a spotlight on how short this team is in the middle infield. Even though the day ended in a tough loss, the Brewers' celebration of Uecker marked another high point in the Brewers' hot streak of ventures that go beyond the games themselves.In Three Up Three Down (51:30), Willy Adames returns with a vengeance, Brice Turang's huge run continues, William Contreras takes a long stroll around the bases and a dash of Jesús Made. In Remembrew When (1:11:30), it's more Uecker memories and in Curt Blanche (1:15:30), Curt tries to give his most refreshing take.Then, JR sits down with Kent Sommerfeld (1:21:30), the sound engineer for the past 40 years on Brewers broadcasts. They talk, of course, about Bob Uecker and the job of bringing Brewers radio magic to life.Music intro from bensound.com. Musical cues (in order): "I Got What You Want" (Extended Version) by Gloria Tells, "Arriving at Dusk" by American Legion and "Screaming Fool" by Andreas Dahlback, all from www.epidemicsound.com.
