How many of you knew Rogers Hornsby played for the Braves? If you raised your hand, put it down, no one cares.
But if you did know, then you knew more about Braves baseball in the 20s than me. I had no clue until this morning when I started researching a historical article to write that the famous Rogers Hornsby spent time in the Braves organization.
Not only that, but in his one season with the Braves he put up the best offensive season in team historys, if you go by OWAR on Baseball Reference.
