Only 21? And that’s a MLB record?
Why does that seem low? Didn’t Braves win like 14 in a row just under the Bobby Cox era alone? And isn’t this our 4th in a row under Snitker? That’s 18 right there.
So we’ve only won 3 more in our team’s history besides those?? What am I missing?

Divisions didn't happen until the late 1960s

Great feat, but as someone who's been around for all of them, only making 3 WS and winning 1 kinda tempers the accomplishment.

How is South Alabama treating you? I drove through Conecuh and Andalusia the other day.

That means we only won 3 others in like 40 of 60 something years.

Divisions started in 1969. That leaves 3 division titles in 23 years (1969, 1982, 1991) before 1992. Considering that from 1969-1995, there were only two divisions in each league and some great teams missed the playoffs (1993 Giants won 103 games and stayed home, which led to the Wild Card), 3 in 23 years really wasn't all that bad.

Can you sneak me into that community? Quiet, low crime, early dinners. Plus old people always have the best wine and bourbon selection. That's my scene.

Wait. We went to the World Series in:
1991
1992
1995
1996
1999
Pretty sure we were in 5 World Series in Atlanta. Did I misunderstand you, maybe?

They don't have a del webb in Foley. I already looked.

And they followed it up with more World Series titles than any other team in MLB history, too - right?

My parents live in a Del Webb. Their complained about me cutting their grass on a Sunday. Apparently you can't do lawn care on Sundays there.
