Bobby Cox bids farewell to Turner Field

By The Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Six games remain in the life of Turner Field, so it's only natural for No. 6 to make an appearance.

Former Braves manager Bobby Cox returns to the scene where he celebrated 14-straight division titles and a World Series championship to commemorate Atlanta's home of the Braves in its final days.

The Hall of Fame Brave, who retired in 2010 as one of baseball's winningest managers, will be on hand tonight for an on-field presentation as the Braves host the Philadelphia Phillies.

Cox, along with team vice chairman John Schuerholz will officially reveal the All Turner Field Team during "Braves LIVE!" broadcast on Fox Sports Southeast at 6:30 p.m.
