2021 Atlanta Braves season

The 2021 Atlanta Braves season was the 151st season of the Atlanta Braves franchise, the 56th Season in Atlanta, and the Braves' 5th season at Truist Park. The Braves were managed by Brian Snitker, in his sixth season as the team’s manager. The Braves clinched their fourth consecutive National League East title. They defeated the Milwaukee Brewers in the NLDS and faced the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLCS for the second straight year. They defeated the Dodgers in six games to reach the World Series for the first time since 1999. They would go on to defeat the Houston Astros in six games, winning their first World Series since 1995, their second since moving to Atlanta, and their fourth in franchise history. Jorge Soler won the Most Valuable Player award in the World Series.

Notes

edit
  1. ^ Atlanta only played 161 games because the scheduled game against the Colorado Rockies on September 16 was cancelled due to weather, and no make-up game took place since the result would have had very little effect on the standings.
