The Milwaukee Brewers have announced that they will be honoring the late broadcaster Bob Uecker with a special patch on their uniforms for the upcoming season. Uecker, who passed away last month at the age of 90, was a beloved figure in the Brewers organization, having completed his 54th season of broadcasting for the team.
The patch, which will be worn on the sleeve of the Brewers' uniforms, features Uecker's signature over a gold-and-navy plaid print, paying tribute to the iconic sportscoats he was known for wearing. Fans will get to see the patch in action for the first time when the Brewers kick off their preseason schedule on February 22 against the Cincinnati Reds in Phoenix.
