Despite the 2025 season not going to plan whatsoever, the Atlanta Braves are still among the most popular teams in all of baseball. As a result, the league likes to highlight them when possible. Over the years, that has not only meant a healthy number of Braves games in primetime TV slots, but it has also meant that Atlanta has been a regular participant in special games that MLB has put on.
There have been a couple of clear examples of this. The game played at Fort Bragg in 2016 was groundbreaking in MLB's attempts to expand the game and, of course, there was this season's game played at Bristol Motor Speedway where the Braves took on the Reds which set attendance records.
