From 1991 through 2005, the Atlanta Braves did something no pro sports team can match, finishing in first place for 14 consecutive seasons.
During that stretch, the Braves parlayed powerful pitching with potent hitting that produced under pressure. Hall of Fame manager Bobby Cox won with veteran teams, young teams, slugging teams, and several times with teams that emphasized speed and defense. His teams captured 100 wins in six different seasons.
In When the Braves Ruled the Diamond, former AP sportswriter Dan Schlossberg covers the record-breaking era that transformed Atlanta from the Bad-News Braves to America's Team. With separate chapters on Cox, fabled pitching coach Leo Mazzone, and Hall of Fame pitchers Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine, and John Smoltz, this book also highlights the contributions of Andres Galarraga, Andruw Jones, Chipper Jones, Brian Jordan, Javy Lopez, Terry Pendleton, and many more Braves stars. It features year-by-year summaries, Opening Day lineups, and even oddball anecdotes that explain why the 14-year streak may never be duplicated. It is the perfect gift for fans of baseball history as well as fans of the Atlanta Braves!

Would you listen to When the Braves Ruled the Diamond again? Why?
Probably not since I got the information from the first listen.Any additional comments?
Loved this narrator, it was like listening to Mike Rowe talk about the Braves. They even used the Braves theme music which was a nice touch. Really interesting information that only an insider would have. I thought I knew the Braves, but now I know so much more!Narration Makes the Book Come Alive

What made the experience of listening to When the Braves Ruled the Diamond the most enjoyable?
I see this as a "commemorative" item. Picture it as the written project but with reproduction score cards or some baseball cards, maybe some some play by play from Ron Wolfley sound bites on the Audible version.This was good but can you see it "enhanced" ?
Who was your favorite character and why?
As produced it well acted. I thought Kyle Tait did a swell job. I believe he has experience as a sports announcer!Which character – as performed by Kyle Tait – was your favorite?
I didn't get a sense of "favorite character" It did provide a fantastic sense of team excellence, where the dynasty fit with other teams' as well as individual perfotmances, batting, pitching, defense, etc!Any additional comments?
In my opinion, this Audible work is worth the credit and my listening time. It is certainly worth many relistening!Thanks for the opportunity to listen and offer my opinions on this work! A review copy was gifted to me at no charge. In return, I am happy to provide an honest review. Also at no charge.

What made the experience of listening to When the Braves Ruled the Diamond the most enjoyable?
I went from knowing absolutely nothing about the Braves history to feeling pretty confident in random bar room conversations.What was one of the most memorable moments of When the Braves Ruled the Diamond?
Internal feuds of management and the unbiased hindsight of the managers assets and faults.What about Kyle Tait’s performance did you like?
Tait was a master on the microphone. His voice kept me engaged throughout the entire venture.Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Early on when it went over all the major trades the Braves did that helped and hurt their team.Impossible not to learn something new

A fun comprehensive collection of Braves facts. My son is in his late twenty's and chose the Braves as his baseball team when he was a very small boy. He has stuck by them even after the glory days. He has shared Braves facts with me for years and adding these facts help refresh my feeble old brain.
The narration was well done by Kyle Tait.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
