“Saturday Night Live” paid tribute to the Milwaukee Brewers’ historic World Series win during the ‘Weekend Update’ segment that featured the return of Bobby Moynihan‘s Drunk Uncle commentator character.

Moynihan spent nine seasons on “SNL,” from 2009 to 2017. His recurring Drunk Uncle character was a classic Archie Bunker-esque East Coast guy with blunt observations on pop culture and politics. He last portrayed Drunk Uncle last year on “Saturday Night Live’s” 50th anniversary special.
