Who is Braves Baseball to you?

This week, we lost two key figures on Atlanta Braves history.

This Week in Purple: Word to Your Mother

It ended up being a tough week for the Colorado Rockies. They kicked things off on Sunday by giving up 11 runs to the Atlanta Braves to complete a sweep, and it didn’t get much better when the New York Mets came to town. The Rockies lost to the Mets on Monday before the snow—yes, […]

Spencer Strider superb as Braves take down Dodgers, 7-2

Triple-A: Gwinnett Stripers (Braves) 9, Norfolk Tides 1 — Game 1 (7 inn.)

The Atlanta Braves received some unfortunate news when outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. was placed on the injured list with a left hamstring strain earlier this week.

Braves squander opportunities, fall to Dodgers in series opener

Dodger Stadium has been a house of horrors for the Braves over the years, and it continued to be so on Friday night as they lost yet again, 3-1. Atlanta had chances to score in seemingly every inning and just couldn’t get the big hit to swing the game. They ended the night 1-for-10 with […]

Ronald Acuña Jr. may be activated after 10 days exactly on IL

Back when Ronald Acuña Jr. was initially diagnosed with a Grade 1 hamstring strain, there was a feeling that Acuña’s stint on the IL might be a quick one — one where the starting right fielder for the Braves would simply just take some rest before ramping back up for a return within a 10-day […]

Dodgers on Deck: Saturday, May 9 vs. Braves

The Dodgers and Atlanta Braves continue their weekend series on Saturday night at Dodger Stadium, with a start time an hour earlier than Friday night.

Braves Minor League Recap: Dixon Williams Homers Again

Thursday night wasn’t a great day to be a pitcher in the Atlanta Braves system. The best team outing was Rome allowing five runs in seven innings, and the worst was a large, large step below that. However, most of the games remained close thanks to big time home runs, including many of the top […]
