Uecker, Provus Highest Rated Brewer Broadcasters in BCB Tracking Poll

This week's poll was open from Tuesday at 12 pm to Wednesday at 3:45 pm. Here are some notable results:

• In an unsurprising result, Bob Uecker was easily the highest-rated Brewer broadcaster, with 95% of voters rating him either "Excellent" or "Good." Cory Provus was the second highest, with 74% of voters putting him in one of the top two categories.
• The Brewer TV broadcast didn't fare quite as well, with Brian Anderson getting 65% in the top two rankings, and Bill Schroeder getting just 34%.
• All told, 49% of voters said they prefer to watch Brewer games on TV with the sound turned up, while 48% either prefer to mute the TV broadcast and turn on the radio, or bypass the TV broadcast altogether.
• Doug Melvin's approval rating is up 6% this week, to 48%. That's the highest it's been since July.
