Overview

• Bob Costas hosted a pregame celebration featuring Robin Yount, George Brett, Ted Simmons, Bud Selig and Christian Yelich.
• The press-box wing was renamed the Bob Uecker Broadcast Center, and his center‑field medallion was updated with a microphone and his name.
• Brewers players and coaches wore uniforms with “UECK” on the back, which are being auctioned to benefit Wounded Warrior Project, the ALS Association and a pancreatic cancer research chair at the Medical College of Wisconsin.
• Fans browsed displays of Uecker memorabilia, including his 1962 rookie contract, signature plaid jackets from Tonight Show appearances and the scorebook from his final broadcast.
• Uecker’s family joined the team on the field as Bob Uecker Jr. threw the first pitch to Yount, with commemorative baseballs and bases in use and large crowds arriving well before first pitch.
