Early Years: The Birth of a Dynasty
The Boston Braves began their journey in 1871 as the Boston Red Stockings. They quickly established themselves as a dominant force, winning five National League championships in the 1870s. In 1883, the team became known as the Boston Beaneaters, a nickname that stuck for the next three decades.
The Golden Age: The Braves Take Flight
The early 1900s marked the golden age of the Boston Braves. Led by legendary manager John McGraw, the team won back-to-back National League championships in 1914 and 1915. The Braves boasted a star-studded lineup that included Hall of Famers such as Eddie Collins, Rabbit Maranville, and Casey Stengel.
The Dark Years: A Time of Struggle
After their golden age, the Boston Braves entered a period of decline. They struggled to compete with the more successful teams in the National League, and attendance at Braves games dwindled. The team's fortunes reached their lowest point in the 1950s, when they consistently finished near the bottom of the league.
The Move to Milwaukee: A New Beginning
In 1953, the Boston Braves announced their decision to move to Milwaukee. The move was met with protests from Boston fans, but the Braves felt that they needed a fresh start in a new city. Milwaukee welcomed the Braves with open arms, and the team quickly became a major success.
The Atlanta Braves: A Legacy Continued
In 1965, the Milwaukee Braves moved once again, this time to Atlanta. The Braves quickly established themselves as a dominant force in the National League West, winning five division titles in their first six years in Atlanta. The team has continued to thrive in Atlanta, winning the World Series in 1995 and 2021.
From their humble beginnings in Boston to their current home in Atlanta, the Boston Braves have played a significant role in the history of baseball.
