Uecker documentary: The Milwaukee Brewers will offer fans an exclusive first look at “Ueck,” a new documentary celebrating the extraordinary life and legacy of Bob Uecker, with a special postgame preview on Opening Day, March 26.
Immediately following the conclusion of the game, fans are encouraged to remain in their seats for the debut of a 20-minute segment from the film, marking the first-ever public showing of the documentary that has been more than two years in the making.
The movie chronicles the incredible life of the immortal and beloved Bob Uecker, spanning his lifetime, including rare content and interviews with Ueck’s family and loved ones from his baseball and entertainment life. Produced by September Club, “Ueck” will enjoy a major theatrical release later this summer with more details to be announced.
“From the very beginning, this project was about honoring Bob Uecker with the care, respect and gratitude he deserves,” said Barry Poltermann, producer and co-founder of September Club, the Milwaukee-based production company behind “Ueck.” “Bob’s story is so deeply woven into the fabric of Milwaukee, the Brewers and this ballpark. To share the first public glimpse of the film at American Family Field on Opening Day, surrounded by Brewers fans, is meaningful for everyone who worked on it. We’re humbled by the trust placed in us to help tell his incredible story.”
Bob Uecker is one of the most beloved figures in the history of the Milwaukee Brewers and a cultural icon far beyond the game of baseball. Known affectionately as “Mr. Baseball,” Uecker spent decades as the voice of the Brewers, earning national recognition for his broadcasting career, including induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame as the recipient of the Ford C. Frick Award. His impact spans baseball, broadcasting and entertainment, making him a singular figure whose humor, authenticity and love for the game helped define generations of fans.
