Rain delay continues 🙄 So awesome of Frenchy to take the time to do this, why he will always be on my favorites and love having him in the booth😁 Thanks again @JeffFrancoeur Can you make the rain and hockey go away🤣
Today, @austinriley1308 visited Dobbins ARB with lunch to thank our military for their service and sacrifice. He was joined by @DRLee45, and the two spent time meeting and taking photos with service members & their families.
Mark my words: The Braves will win their fifth World Series in October, dedicating it to Ted and Bobby.
The same way they did it in 21 for Hank and Knucksie. The script is too perfect and the baseball gods owe the Braves a favor or two.
Haven’t posted on social in quite some time but can’t stay quiet in this time of loss. I’m struggling to tell all what Bobby Cox meant to me and so many others in Braves Country.
He was the leader of men and a second father to so many Atlanta Braves thru the yrs. I’m so sad today, but as I sit here watching my two youngest boys play in their championship games on the day he passed, I can’t help but shout the same things he did from the corner of the dugout. ‘Come on kid, u got this!’
We are gonna miss him so much, but his legacy is forever cemented with the success of this franchise for the last 35+ yrs. He started it as GM, continued as manager, and passing the torch to others, the Atlanta Braves will continue to be force that Bobby Cox always wanted us to be. We love you Skipper. You were our rock. I love you more than words can express.
My boys won both of their games…..Bobby had a hand, I have no doubt!
Bobby Cox’s fighting spirit will never be forgotten. It was incredible that he managed to crawl to his neighbor’s house to get help when he had his stroke in 2019. Before the Braves went to Philly for the 2023 NLCS, friends and family members were told to prepare their goodbyes. There was a sense he might be gone by the time the team returned to Atlanta. Then, just a few months’ ago, he survived a bout with COVID. He didn’t eat for a few days and then awoke one day and said, “I’m hungry.” He was an incredible man.
Bobby Cox wasn’t just the Braves manager. He wasn’t just an icon. He is a legend. He is the man who turned kids into fans. He is the man who turned fans into fanatics. He is the man who transformed a franchise into the gold standard that sports teams across the world strive to be. He set the tone for the “Braves Way,” which lives on today and will continue to live on through future generations.
RIP to Bobby, and prayers to his friends and family.
