“It brought tears, cheers, and as always with Ueck, some laughs.” - Brendyn Jones, WTMJ
Ueck: The Story of Baseball's Most Unlikely Legend is a feature-length documentary capturing the remarkable life, career, and enduring cultural legacy of beloved Milwaukee Brewers broadcaster and icon Bob Uecker. DCA is proud to welcome directors Michael Vollmann and Steve Farr, and other special guests for a unique event and Q&A! Filmed with intimate access over his final years, the documentary explores Uecker's improbable journey from a backup major league catcher with a career .200 batting average to a celebrated late-night guest of Johnny Carson, sitcom star, and the Hall of Fame "Voice of the Brewers".
