John Beasley "Jack" Brickhouse (1916-1998), American Sportscaster


Harry Caray (1914-1998), originally uploaded by Gary P. Smith.

Known primarily for his play by play coverage of Chicago Cubs games on WGN-TV from 1948 to 1981. He also covered national events from time to time, including three World Series for NBC television. He was best known for the expression "Hey-hey", and that phrase now vertically adorns the screens on the foul poles at Wrigley Field, pictured above. Taken by Gary P Smith.
