He was inducted to the Blue Jays Level of Excellence in 2004. Cheek's best-known call was perhaps his description of Joe Carter's dramatic title-clinching home run in Game 6 of the 1993 World Series, when he said, "Touch 'em all, Joe, you'll never hit a bigger home run in your life!" He is also author of the book Road to Glory, chronicling the first 16 years of Blue Jays baseball. Cheek received the 2013 Ford C. Frick Award after being nominated as a finalist for the award every year since 2005. (en)
