He starred at the University of Michigan, helping the Wolverines win the 1962 College World Series, then signed with the Detroit Tigers in 1964. A right-handed-hitting utility infielder, Campbell reached the majors with Detroit in 1967 and spent parts of eight seasons with the Tigers, San Diego Padres, St. Louis Cardinals, and Houston Astros through 1974, playing first, second, and third base.

After retiring as a player, Campbell built a long career in broadcasting, calling games for the Padres and later working national baseball broadcasts for ESPN from 1990 to 2010.
