Harwell was told he could announce the Tiger games until the end of the 1991 season. Baseball fans everywhere were shocked and saddened to hear that their old friend Ernie had been fired. Millions of fans had spent countless hours listening to Ernie's laidback style of calling the games.
At the end of the 1990 season, Ernie was informed by Tiger President Bo Schembechler that the team wanted to go in a "new direction".

In October of 1951 when Bobby Thomson hit his famous "shot heard round the world", it was Ernie who was announcing the game on national television. The coaxial cable had just been laid and it was one of the earliest coast to coast broadcasts. Unfortunately, no kinescope or recording of that broadcast exists.
In 1950, Harwell began working with Russ Hodges calling the plays for the New York Giants.
He was the announcer in Brooklyn (working with Red Barber and Connie Desmond) from 1948 to 1949.
