Throwback Thursday
The Boston Braves had quite the history before they moved to Milwaukee and finally Atlanta. This being baseball, and Boston, fortunes changed, and after a particularly bad 1935 season, the team was sold. The new owner was going for a new look and new image, and thought renaming the team the Boston Bees would do it. It didn’t. In 1941 the team was sold again, and renamed the Braves. When this Feb. 25, 1938 photo was taken, catchers Al Lopez, left, Ray Mueller, center and John Riddle, all of the Boston Bees, limber up their arms at spring training camp in Bradenton, Fla.
