The Atlanta Braves are the oldest continuously operating sports franchise in North American sports. It's possible to trace their ancestry to the original Cincinnati Red Stockings of 1869-1870, baseball's first openly professional team. Officially founded in 1871 in Boston, Massachusetts as the Boston Red Stockings of the National Association, the club became a charter member of the National League in 1876 and has remained in the league without a break since then. When the National Association formed, Red Stockings founder Harry Wright and the best players from that team re-formed in Boston and took the nickname with them. They became the Boston Braves in 1912, remaining in Boston until 1952 when they moved to Milwaukee until 1965. In order to attract a baseball team, the city of Atlanta, Georgia, built a new ballpark, the Atlanta Stadium and the new owners of the Milwaukee Braves decided to move. A lawsuit prevented the move for a year, but in 1966 the Braves moved to Atlanta.

The Atlanta Braves were an average team the first few years until 1969 National League West pennant, but were swept by the Mets in the National League Championship Series. They did not win it again until 1982, managed by Joe Torre. In 1976, the team was purchased by Ted Turner and Atlanta Stadium was renamed Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium. Ted Turner, a quirky hands-on owner, managed the team for one game. After three straight losing seasons, Bobby Cox was hired for the 1978 season. Cox was fired after the 1981 season and replaced with Joe Torre, under whose leadership the Braves attained their first divisional title since 1969. The 1986 season saw the return of Bobby Cox to the Braves organization as general manager. He manages to this day. Atlanta Braves World Series Trophy

The Atlanta Braves have had many ups and downs, but rose to prominence once again in 1991. They defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates in a tightly contested seven-game National League Championship Series only to lose the World Series, also in seven games, to the Minnesota Twins. Despite the World Series loss, the Braves' success would continue. In the 1992 season, the Braves would reach the National League Championship Series again and defeat, once again, in seven games, the Pirates, only to lose in the World Series to a dominating Toronto Blue Jays team. In 1993, the Braves signed Cy Young Award winning pitcher Greg Maddux, leading many baseball insiders to declare the Atlanta Braves pitching staff the best of all-time. The Atlanta Braves would win a World Series in 1995, defeating the Cleveland Indians in six games. With this World Series victory, the Braves became the first team in Major League Baseball to win world championships in three different cities. With their strong pitching being a constant, the Atlanta Braves would also appear in the 1996 and 1999 World Series, and had not failed to win a division title 1990 until the 2005 season, a record 14 straight division wins.
