The Atlanta Braves organization confirmed Saturday that Bobby Cox, the Hall of Fame manager who guided the team through its most successful era, has passed away at 84 years old.
Cox transformed the Braves into a baseball dynasty throughout the 1990s, culminating in the franchise’s sole World Series title in 1995. His managerial career with Atlanta concluded following the 2010 season, capping off decades of excellence on the diamond.
The veteran skipper became synonymous with Braves baseball during an unprecedented run of success that made Atlanta a perennial contender and household name across the sport.
