No Retrosheet for this one:
In the 13th game of the Braves' 13-game win streak to start 1982, the game could have ended on a double play in the 9th, but Brett Butler's batted ball hit a Braves runner as he ran from second to third. The Braves' backup catcher was called out and the Braves found new life. Jim Kern threw a wild pitch, advancing Rafael Ramirez to third and Butler to second. Biff Pocoroba was intentionally walked and Claudell Washington slapped a two-run single to center to win the game.
Who was the runner who was called out for interference?

What Brave first baseman holds the record for appearing in the most Division Series?
Registered User
Doesn't Chipper Jones have the record with 11

I don't think Chipper ever played first base... perhaps you're thinking third?
Fred McGriff had 5, but I'm thinking it's not that easy....

Then the question needs to be reworded. Something like....Who holds the record for appearing in the most Division Series as a Brave first baseman?...would be clearer.I don't think Chipper ever played first base... perhaps you're thinking third?

Yeeeeees!!
I thought I was pretty clear on the way I was wording it. Boy, I have a cruddy question streak!
Francisco Cabrera had the pennant winning hit in the 1992 NLCS. Sid Bream scored the winning run. Who scored the TYING run?

David Justice!
I remember watching that game on TV when I was a kid... when we won I ran around the house screaming with joy for a good half-hour.
Wasn't that the year that the next morning's AJC had the word "YES!" in about 100pt font on the front page with a picture Bream crossing the plate?

Along that vein of newspaper headlines...
What explosive word was coupled with the 15-0 score announcing the Braves' 1996 NLCS victory in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution?

KABOOM! 15-0

The Braves led the National League in attendance in only one year in Atlanta. What was it?
