This article is about the professional basketball player and minor league baseball announcer. For the professional baseball player and Frankie's father, see Frank Gilhooley.
In 1953, Gilhooley began his broadcasting career as the radio voice of the Toledo Sox.[4] Over the next 50+ years he held various roles in radio and television, at one point anchoring the evening sportscast segments on regional television.[4] When the Mud Hens moved to their new facility in 2002, Fifth Third Field, the team named two concession areas, one on each concourse level, "Gilhooley's Grill."[4] In addition to his baseball broadcasting career, Gilhooley also did play-by-play of Toledo and Bowling Green college basketball games.[4]
