How many World Series have the Braves won?
The Braves have three World Series titles, one for each of their hometowns: 1914 (as the Boston Braves), 1957 (as the Milwaukee Braves) and 1995 (as the Atlanta Braves). The 1914 team featured Hall of Famer Johnny Evers; the Braves swept Connie Mack's Philadelphia Athletics. The 1957 group was powered by the big bats of Eddie Mathews and eventual home-run king Hank Aaron, and by the arm of Warren Spahn; Milwaukee bested Mickey Mantle and the Yankees in seven games. The 1995 Braves were one of the great collections of arms in the history of the game, with Hall of Famers Tom Glavine, Greg Maddux and John Smoltz at the top of the rotation, and their offense was led by Hall of Fame third baseman Chipper Jones. They dispatched the Indians in six games. That one World Series victory is all the Braves have to show for an unprecedented era of dominance during which they won 14 straight division titles.
