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)

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.
