Talking Brickhouse bobblehead coming

It’s a first! A talking bobblehead. At least at Wrigley Field.

At Friday’s Cubs –Cardinals game Friday, there will be a Jack Brickhouse bobblehead give-away for folks who get to the game early enough.

The bobbing figure — a likeness of the late, great and beloved Hall of Fame broadcaster — will have an audio chip embedded in it, reliving Brickhouse’s broadcast of Ernie Banks’ 500^th homerun. Natch, the recording will end with Brick’s signature “Hey! Hey!”

To toast the occasion, the Cubs have created a special jersey for Jack’s widow, Pat Brickhouse — emblazoned with “40” to honor Jack’s four decades in the broadcast booth.

Pat also will throw out the ceremonial first pitch of the game — and, for the very first time, lead the Wrigley crowd in singing for the 7^th inning stretch.
