Atlanta Braves

The Hall of Famer returns to Atlanta as an honorary American League coach at Tuesday’s MLB All-Star Game.

MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred avoids politics in explaining why the MLB All-Star Game is back in Atlanta.

The Braves, Truist Park and The Battery Atlanta have been preparing for the MLB All-Star Game for years, and all will be the epicenter of the baseball world Tuesday night.

The Baxley native and former No. 2 overall pick from Appling High School is in town for his second All-Star Game.

The Georgia native, who participated in Saturday’s High School Home Run Derby, hit seven home runs in the first round and added two in the second.

Ditching the press box for the outfield stands seemed to offer the most potential for fun in the Home Run Derby at Truist Park, the precursor to Tuesday night’s All-Star Game.

Raleigh, from Cullowhee, North Carolina, became the first catcher ever to win the Home Run Derby and the second Mariners player to do so.

Former Braves star Freddie Freeman returns to Atlanta for his ninth All-Star Game, now as a Dodger — and still a fan favorite.

Twenty-five years ago, Braves first baseman Matt Olson sat in the upper deck of Turner Field to take in the Home Run Derby.
