This Day in Braves History: Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine and Bobby Cox enter the Hall of Fame

1961 - Vada Pinson steals home to give the Reds a 2-1 win over the Braves. Carl Willey’s throw beats Pinson but he kicks the ball out of the glove of catcher Sammy White.

1966 - The Wisconsin Supreme Court overrules a lower court decision and holds that the state doesn’t have the jurisdiction to keep the Braves from moving to Atlanta.

1989 - Dale Murphy homers twice in the sixth inning of a 10-1 Braves win over the Giants. He is the first Braves player to homer twice in the same inning since Bobby Lowe in 1894.
