Atlanta Braves history

Founded in Boston in 1871 as the Red Stockings, the Braves are the oldest continuously operating pro sports franchise in North America. They were also a charter member of the National League in 1876. After cycling through several names, the club settled on Boston Braves in 1912. It played 82 seasons in Boston and won one World Series there.

Milwaukee came next, in 1953, and with Warren Spahn, Hank Aaron and Eddie Mathews the team won the 1957 World Series. Crowds still shrank, so the owners moved to Atlanta in 1966. From 1991 to 2005 the Braves won 14 division titles in a row behind an elite rotation of Tom Glavine, Greg Maddux and John Smoltz. Truist Park in Cumberland, Georgia, is home now.
