1995 World Series

It's been a long time since those magic moments. I remember watching the Braves win the World Series as an eight-year-old thinking there'd be plenty more where that came from. More than 20 years later and I'm still waiting for another one.

0-9?!!!! 0-freaking-9?!!!! Fire someone!

I feel like we are wearing the baby blues in the mid 80's

The crowd after the Braves scored the winning run in the 92 NLCS is one of the most raucous crowds I've ever heard.

I remember Otis Nixon robbing somebody from the Pirates of a homerun.

maybe it was Andy Van slyke?

use to watch a lot of braves on tbs back in the day but that was the best catch i saw back then i'm pretty sure

Shoot, I was coming to post a random Otis Nixon shout out.

I guess I'll go with a Ron Gant.

Dale Murphy, Glenn Hubbard, Gene Garber, Billy Sample, and Knucksie? That kind of good? The Braves winning like 10 straight Division titles were the biggest frauds in MLB history. One title, thats it. A whole one.

Yea I remember the Braves being my team I could count on to at least be in contention. This plain stinks but weren't supposed to be good this year.

Those were the days... Ted was a great owner. All LM cares about is the bottom line.

I remember a certain ump helping the Marlins beat them in the 97 NLCS.

0-9 is terrible, but the fact remains that everyone in the world said they'd be lucky to win 75 this year. They have a plan in place and will be ready to open the new park with a bang. If not, it could be a terrible gamble.

90s braves were so fun to watch I adopted them as my N.L team to follow.

My A.L allegiance will never change.

I just question how they think they are going to go from where they are currently to competitive inside of a year. So much works remains to be done.
