Q: When the Braves were in Milwaukee, they had a red Braves script with a dark tomahawk on their jerseys. When did they go to the red Braves script and a red tomahawk?
—Keith Watkins, Brookhaven
A: The Braves removed the dark tomahawk from the front of their jerseys in 1963, when they were still in Milwaukee, according to the Baseball Hall of Fame's MLB Uniform Database. The "Braves" lettering on the jersey was still red and stayed that color until 1968 – two years after the franchise moved from Milwaukee to Atlanta — when the Braves changed it to blue and introduced blue pinstripes to their home uniforms. The tomahawk returned to the front of the jerseys in 1987, when the Braves redesigned their uniforms to a version of what they currently wear. The team dumped the pullover jerseys and the powder blue road uniforms that they had worn since 1980 and went with a buttoned jersey with red "Braves" lettering and a red tomahawk that season.
