Latest news on the Atlanta Braves, also known as the Braves, covering game reports, trade rumors, free agency, prospects, Truist Park and the road to the World Series.

The Braves are a Major League Baseball (MLB) club based in Atlanta, Georgia. They play in the National League (NL) division known as the NL East. Their colours are navy and red, and the tomahawk logo is one of baseball's most familiar marks.

Braves coverage often turns on young talent, pitching depth and the club's long record of postseason baseball. The tomahawk chop and the team's name have also been debated in wider conversations about Native American imagery in sport.

Truist Park opened in 2017 in the Cumberland area and sits within a large entertainment district. The club previously played at Turner Field and, before that, at Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium. Fans know the tomahawk chop, and the club has long been popular across the South.

The franchise traces to the Boston Red Stockings of 1871, became the Boston Braves, moved to Milwaukee in 1953 and settled in Atlanta in 1966. Hank Aaron passed Babe Ruth's career home run record in 1974. The 1990s pitching staff of Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine and John Smoltz, plus Chipper Jones, helped build a long run of division titles. Mets and Phillies games remain heated NL East rivalries.
