The Atlanta Braves are MLB's oldest continuously operating franchise, now calling the modern Truist Park in Cobb County home. Blending a deep, well-traveled history with a perennial contender's swagger, the Braves have long been a National League power, famous for a run of division titles in the 1990s and a resurgent championship core in recent years. "The Battery" entertainment district around the ballpark has made game day a full experience for Atlanta's passionate fan base.
Tracing its roots to 1871 in Boston, the franchise has called Boston, Milwaukee, and Atlanta home, winning the World Series in each city: 1914 with the "Miracle" Boston Braves, 1957 in Milwaukee behind Hank Aaron and Eddie Mathews, and 1995 after moving to Atlanta in 1966. The Braves' 1991-2005 run of fourteen straight division titles, anchored by pitchers Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine, and John Smoltz, remains one of the great dynasties in North American sports, and the club added a fourth title in 2021 behind Freddie Freeman and a deep pitching staff.
