When the struggling Boston Braves relocated to Milwaukee in March 1953, the city went wild for its new baseball team. Within five years the team would win a World Series and two pennants. Yet in October 1964 team owners made a shocking announcement: the Braves were moving to Atlanta. Patrick Steele delves deeply into all facets of the story to understand how the “Milwaukee Miracle†went south.
