Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 5018508, member: 289"] Came across this on You-Tube: [MEDIA=youtube]y6iMkw5Y_3M[/MEDIA] The last out was made by Mack Jones, who gets doubled off in a close play. Mack was the star of the 1964 Syracuse Chiefs and played several productive years for the Braves and Expos. Despite the comments made by the Braves' Board Chairman (6:40), my understanding of why the Braves left was that TV revenue had now become more important to baseball teams than the live gate and Atlanta had a larger TV market than Milwaukee. Fortunately, Milwaukee fans would have a new team to root for in five years and the Brewers have now been in business there for 54 seasons. But Braves fans could not have known that in 1965. [/QUOTE]
