Bill Schroeder returns for his 15th season as the color commentator on Brewers telecasts, providing his analysis for audiences throughout the Upper Midwest. Popular with the fans, Schroeder began his career behind the mic as the Brewers color man after a distinguished playing career. He is familiar with the business of talking baseball, co-hosting "Baseball Sunday" in 1994 and "Talkin' Brewers" on WTMJ-Radio from 1998-2000. For the past five winters, Schroeder has been the coordinator of the Brewers Fantasy Camp. The camp is always a hit, selling out each year at the Brewers' spring training home in Maryvale, Arizona. Schroeder spent eight seasons in the big leagues with the Brewers and California Angels, posting a career-best .332 batting average in 1987. As a key member of "Team Streak," Bill caught Juan Nieves' no-hitter on April 15, 1987 in the midst of the Brewers' Major League record-tying 13-0 start. In addition, he clubbed a career-high 14 home runs and had 42 RBI in a backup role that season. Schroeder provided the highlight to his finest season in the majors on June 14, 1987 at Yankee Stadium, when before family and friends, he collected four hits, including a game-winning two-run homer off Dave Righetti. Schroeder was traded to the California Angels following the 1988 campaign before retiring as a player in 1990. Always an active member in the community since beginning his Major League career, Schroeder was named the recipient of the Athletes For Youth Good Guy Award in 1988. Born in Baltimore and raised in Princeton, New Jersey, Schroeder graduated from West Windsor Plainsboro High School, where he earned All-State honors his junior and senior years.
