In honor of the Indians visiting Braves ...

As the Atlanta Braves prepare to host the Cleveland Indians tonight at Turner Field this week, we turn back the clock to 1995.

It was Oct. 28. The Braves hung to a 1-run lead, thanks to a sixth-inning solo home run by David Justice of the Indians' Jim Poole. The Braves' Tom Glavine had started Game 6 of the World Series and pitched eight shutout innings, allowing just one hit and three walks.

The stage was set. Braves reliever Mark Wohlers reached the mound for the final three outs.
