A Brief History of the Atlanta Braves

The Atlanta Braves are a Major League Baseball team based out of Atlanta, Georgia. The Braves play in the National League's Eastern Division and are owned by Time Warner, Inc. Bobby Cox has been the Braves manager for the past 16 seasons. The Braves play their home games at Turner Field in down town Atlanta. Turner Field was built to host the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta and once the Games were over, the field was converted to a baseball field. Turner Field seats over 50,000 baseball fans. The Braves began playing their home games at Turner Field in 1997.

The Braves franchised has called three different cities home and have won a World Series in each city. They started out in Boston as the Red Stockings in 1871. The Franchise was a charter member of the National League that formed in 1876. The team was known as the Beaneaters, Doves, and Rustlers before taking on the name Braves in 1912. Boston won eight National League Titles before the turn of the 20th century with legendary players and managers like Harry Wright, George Wright, King Kelly, Kid Nichols, and Frank Steele.

The Boston Braves won their first World Series title in 1914 with George Stallings as manager and stars like Joe Connolly, Bill James and Dick Rudolph. The 1914 Braves won an improbable 68 of 87 games after July 4 to win the National League Pennant over the New York Giants. They continued their momentum into the World Series and swept the Philadelphia A's four games to zero. After the 1914 Series, the Braves slipped back to the bottom of the league and remained there for the next 30 plus seasons. The team went so far as to change their name from the Braves to the Bees in an effort to separate itself from the previous dismal years. New ownership and a return of the nickname Braves in 1941 improved the team's fortunes just slightly. The Braves won one more National League pennant while in Boston. They won the 1948 Pennant with 91 wins but lost the 48 World Series to the Cleveland Indians 4 games to 2.

In 1953, the Braves packed their bags and headed West in hopes to improve ticket sales and team play. The Milwaukee Braves began playing at Milwaukee County Stadium in 1953. The Braves saw immediate improvement in Milwaukee and won 92 games in 1953. By 1957, the Milwaukee Braves won their third National League Pennant and their second World Series title with a thrilling four games to three win over the New York Yankees. The 1954 Braves returned to the World Series but the Yankees returned the favor winning the 54 Series 4 games to three. This Braves Championship team was led by manager Fred Haney and Super Star players like Hank Aaron, Eddie Mathews, and Warren Spahn. The Braves remained in Milwaukee until 1966. The Milwaukee Braves are the only team in Major League history (playing more than 1 season) to never have a losing record. At the end of the 1965 season, despite their success on the field, the Braves moved south to Atlanta, Georgia.

The Atlanta Braves were unable to duplicate their feats in Milwaukee, at least not initially. The Braves won only two division titles during their first 25 seasons in Atlanta. In 1991, the Braves hired Bobby Cox to be their new manager. The Braves began a streak in 1991 that would span 14 seasons where they won their division. The Braves used dominant pitching from All Stars like Tom Glavine, Greg Maddux, and John Smoltz along with clutch hitting from a bevy of stars like Fred McGriff, Andrew Jones, Gary Sheffield, Chipper Jones, and Andres Galarraga to lead the team year after year. During this unmatched span of Division titles, the Braves won 1 World Series, 1995 versus the Cleveland Indians and 5 National League Pennants.

In 2006, the improbably run of division titles came to an end. The Braves finished in third place in their division and out of the playoffs for the first time since 1991. The 2007 Atlanta Braves are expected to reclaim their dominance and if ticket sales are any indication, the fans of Atlanta are expecting the same thing.
