About this episode
Grant McAuley reflects on the life and legacy of Bobby Cox while discussing the Atlanta Braves' recent performance and player contributions.
The Atlanta Braves organization mourns the loss of another franchise icon as legendary manager Bobby Cox passed away just three days after longtime owner Ted Turner. Grant McAuley will reflect on the life and legacy of Bobby Cox, sharing interviews and reactions from some of the men who knew him best. While the team was dealing with that tragic news, it did not stop them from closing out a nine-game road trip by taking just their second series in Dodger Stadium since 2013. We'll discuss all of the key plays, players and trends that are fueling Atlanta's hot start. Jake Mastroianni of Locked On Braves joins the show to discuss the standout players who are powering the Braves offensive success and some ways the team could actually level up as the season plays out.
