Atlanta Braves fans aren't strangers to experiencing historic moments. That's to be expected when the organization has been around for so long. From incredible offensive outbursts to incomparable pitching performances, there's plenty to choose from.

Pitching has been the pride of the Braves organization for a long time. This was solidified in the early 90s, and everyone expects Atlanta to carry a talented pitching staff every season. That was no different for the team during the 2010s.

One year in particular stands out as particularly impressive, and that was 2012. The rotation that season consisted of starts from Mike Minor, Tommy Hanson, Tim Hudson, Randall Delgado, Brandon Beachy, Paul Maholm, Jair Jurrjens, and Kris Medlen.
