Bob Uecker To Broadcast Games From His 53rd, 54th Major League Parks This Week

As I'm sure many of you know, Bob Uecker is currently in his 41st season on Brewer radio broadcasts. A lot has changed in 41 years of baseball: For one, nearly every major league team is playing in a different park than they were when Uecker debuted. Some have changed multiple times.

When Uecker sits down behind the microphone today, the new Yankee Stadium will be the 53rd venue where he's called a major league regular season or playoff game for the Brewers. On Friday, Target Field will be his 54th*. Here's a look at the various ballparks Uecker has graced over the years:

Please let me know if I'm missing any or if any of my information is incorrect. I used the splits pages on B-Ref to compile a list of venues but it's possible I missed something. By my count, the only current ballpark Uecker will be missing after Friday is Safeco Field in Seattle.

While researching for this post (with help from TheJay), I was unable to find a precise start date for Uecker on the air in 1971. The change would only impact one park: If Uecker wasn't with the team when they visited RFK Stadium to play the Senators in 1971, then his first game there would actually have been a Brewer contest against the Nationals in the 00's. All of the other AL parks from 1971 were still active in 1972.

This list does not include games Uecker broadcasted as part of Monday Night Baseball or any other non-Brewer broadcasting.
