The1996 Atlanta Braves season was the 126th season in the history of the franchise and 31st season in the city ofAtlanta. They had a regular season record of 96–66 and reached theWorld Series, where they lost to the underdogNew York Yankees in six games, failing to defend theirchampionship in 1995. Heavily favored and seen as one of the greatest Braves teams in history and despite taking a 2–0 lead, theBraves unexpectedly lost the next 4 games. This World Series appearance was their fourth appearance in the last 5 years as a franchise, excludingthe strike-abbreviated 1994 season. Atlanta won its seventh division title (second in the National League East, the other five in the NL West) and its fifth in six years. In the previous round, Atlanta completed a miraculous comeback. After trailing in theNLCS toSt. Louis three games to one, Atlanta outscored St. Louis 32–1 in games five through seven to complete the comeback.
The 1996 season was the Braves' final season atAtlanta–Fulton County Stadium, with Game 5 of the 1996 World Series being the last game played in the stadium. Atlanta–Fulton County Stadium also served as a venue during the1996 Summer Olympics held in Atlanta, prompting the Braves to go on an extended road trip as their stadium hosted thebaseball competition. Following the closing ceremonies of the1996 Summer Paralympics,Centennial Olympic Stadium was reconstructed as planned intoTurner Field, which would become the home of the Braves for the next 20 seasons. This was also the final season for Ted Turner as the owner of the Braves. The team would be acquired (along withTBS) byTime Warner in October 1996, following the World Series.
Atlanta had an excellent pitching staff, which set an MLB record with 1,245strikeouts, besting the1969 Houston Astros. The record was surpassed by 4 teams in 2001.[1][2]
