Description: full game ticket from the game in which broadcaster Tom Cheek was added to the Jays’ Level of Excellence. Nice shape. The number 4306 was included alongside his name to commemorate the number of consecutive games (from April 7, 1977 to June 2, 2004) he called for the Blue Jays during his 27-plus seasons of broadcasting for them. The honour was a surprise to Cheek, who was battling brain cancer. He had been told there would be an on-field presentation, but he was not told he was being added to the Level of Excellence. Thomas F. Cheek (June 13, 1939 – October 9, 2005) was an American sports commentator who is best remembered as the play-by-play radio announcer for the Toronto Blue Jays of Major League Baseball (MLB), from the team's establishment in 1977 until his retirement in 2004. During that time, he covered a 27-year streak of 4,306 consecutive games plus 41 post-season games—from the first Blue Jays game on April 7, 1977, until June 3, 2004. He was inducted to the Blue Jays Level of Excellence in 2004.
