For the second time in a span in two years, the Atlanta Braves lengthened the contract of Brian Snitker, extending the World Series-winning manager Friday for one more season through 2025.
No financial terms of the deal were reported.
Snikter, 67, guided the Braves to a championship in 2021 and a month later the team picked up a club option on his contract that extended his deal through 2024. Friday's deal means Snitker won't have lame-duck status beyond the upcoming season.
The Braves are 542-451 over seven seasons under Snitker, winning 97 games in 2019 and following their title with 101 victories last season.
