Milwaukee Brewers fans will receive a special preview of a documentary honoring longtime broadcaster Bob Uecker.

Fans attending Opening Day for the Milwaukee Brewers will be treated to a special tribute honoring one of the most beloved figures in franchise history. The Brewers announced Monday that a preview of a new documentary celebrating the life of legendary broadcaster Bob Uecker will be shown following the club’s season opener. The preview will take place immediately after Milwaukee’s matchup with the Chicago White Sox on March 26 at American Family Field.

The film, titled “Ueck,” has been in development for more than two years and chronicles the colorful life and career of the longtime Brewers voice. Fans inside the stadium will be encouraged to remain in their seats after the game for a 20-minute preview segment, marking the documentary’s first public showing. According to Adam McCalvy of MLB.

com , the project was produced by Milwaukee-based production company September Club, which began following Uecker during Spring Training in 2023. Throughout the process, filmmakers captured interviews, behind-the-scenes footage, and personal moments that highlight his decades-long impact on baseball and the Milwaukee community. Uecker himself participated heavily in the project before his passing in January 2025.

The film also features contributions from family members and longtime friends who reflect on his legacy both in and outside of baseball. “From the very beginning, this project was about honoring Bob Uecker with the care, respect, and gratitude he deserves,” said producer Barry Poltermann, a co-founder of September Club. “Bob’s story is so deeply woven into the fabric of Milwaukee, the Brewers and this ballpark,” Poltermann said.
