Dansby Swanson immortalized in new mural in his native Marietta

MARIETTA, Ga. — It’s safe to say the Marietta community is proud of their hometown kid, Dansby Swanson, after he helped the Braves bring home the World Series.

A new mural depicting Swanson was put up just a few weeks ago on the Marietta Square.

“Right now, we’re celebrating the Braves and we’re so proud. So proud,” one Braves fan visiting the mural told Channel 2 anchor Justin Wilfon.

Just a day after Swanson and the Braves won the first World Series for Atlanta since 1995, plenty of proud Marietta residents visited the mural to snap a photo with their hometown hero.
