The patch, featuring Uecker’s signature over a gold-and-navy plaid design, will adorn the sleeves of the team’s uniforms throughout the 2025 season. The plaid pattern is said to pay tribute to Uecker’s iconic sportscoats.

The patch will debut on Feb. 22 during the Brewers’ preseason opener against the Cincinnati Reds in Phoenix.
