BY: MATTHEW PRESLAR![]() A quick geography lesson: until the early 90’s expansion that birthed the Marlins, the Braves were the only team east from St. Louis and Kansas City, and south of Baltimore. Based on location, Braves country was the ENTIRE southeastern United States. Former owner, Ted Turner also had the Braves televised nationally on his TBS Superstation. The greatest ATLANTA Brave in most people’s opinion is Chipper Jones. Earlier this year Chipper released his biography titled BALLPLAYER. This book gave us a close look at the life of this legend and future Hall of Famer. He detailed growing up and beginning to be star in youth baseball in Pierson Florida, enrolling in a private school, and the stresses for a kid leading up to being the #1 pick in the 1990 draft by the Atlanta Braves.
