Marty Brennaman Statue

Presented by Encore Technologies

To honor his extraordinary legacy, we are proud to introduce the Marty Brennaman Statue Project: a permanent tribute on Crosley Terrace at Great American Ball Park that captures the essence of one of baseball’s most beloved broadcasters.

The statue honors and celebrates Marty Brennaman — the unmistakable voice of the Cincinnati Reds for nearly five decades. With passion, honesty, and unforgettable calls, Marty brought every game to life. His signature phrase, “And this one belongs to the Reds!”, became a rallying cry for generations of fans. A Hall of Fame broadcaster and Ford C. Frick Award winner, Marty was more than an announcer, he was a trusted companion, master storyteller, and enduring symbol of Reds baseball.

The statue will capture Marty in his iconic broadcast pose—headphones on, microphone in one hand and scorebook in the other—embodying the energy, passion, and vivid storytelling that defined countless Reds games. Created by renowned local sculptor Tom Tsuchiya, it will honor not only Marty’s Hall of Fame career but also the deep emotional bond he shared with Reds fans across the region and beyond. The piece will stand proudly among the Crosley Terrace statues of Reds legends Ernie Lombardi, Joe Nuxhall, Frank Robinson, and Ted Kluszewski, as well as Big Red Machine icons Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan, Pete Rose, and Tony Pérez.

As a contributor or partner, you’ll help ensure Marty’s remarkable career and legacy are celebrated for years to come. Your support will make possible an unforgettable VIP reception and statue unveiling and dedication—uniting fans, players, and the community in honoring one of baseball’s most cherished voices.

Join us! Help honor and celebrate a legend whose voice still echoes in the hearts of millions.
