A standout pitcher during his 14-year Major League career, Mike Krukow spent his final seven seasons with the Giants, earning an All-Star selection in 1986 and winning 20 games that season. After retirement from the field, Krukow found a second calling in the broadcast booth, becoming one of baseball’s most beloved and respected voices alongside his longtime partner and friend, Duane Kuiper. For generations of Giants and baseball fans, Krukow has been much more than a broadcaster. He has been a trusted companion, a teacher, a storyteller and a true Forever Giant.

On September 27, Mike Krukow retired from the broadcast booth. The Giants game celebrated Kruk & Kuip, culminating with a heartfelt postgame ceremony.
