An Insider's Guide to Atlanta Braves Games

Tips to know before you go to see the Atlanta Braves play home games at Truist Park and The Battery Atlanta.

The Braves baseball team was moved to Atlanta in 1966 from stints in Boston and Milwaukee. It's the longest continuously operating franchise in Major League Baseball. In their years as an organization, the team has won four World Series (most recently in 2021). Legends like Hank Aaron helped make the team what it is today.
