EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE BRAVES WORLD SERIES PARADE

The victory would come as a shock to anyone in August when the team was stuck below .500. Yet out of nowhere, suddenly, these Atlanta Braves transformed themselves and took off.

Freedie Freeman says it's a pretty good feeling winning the World Series

Braves slugger Freddie Freeman said the team seemed to have hit every pothole, but somehow survived and it was incredible what the team accomplished this year.

By the end, nothing could stop them. Not a broken leg sustained by starter Charlie Morton in the World Series opener. Not a big blown lead in Game 5.

Steadied by the 66-year-old Snitker, an organization man for four decades, the underdog Braves won the franchise’s fourth title.

"They never gave up on themselves," he said on a postgame victory platform. "We lost a lot of pieces over the course of the summer and it was just the next man up."
