What was said about Braves at Liberty Media stockholders meeting

Braves owner Liberty Media held its annual meeting of stockholders this week in Colorado, and most of the questions were about the conglomerate’s businesses such as satellite radio, cable TV and digital commerce.

But one stockholder had Liberty’s baseball team on his mind, asking company executives a series of questions about the business of the Braves.

Liberty Media CEO Greg Maffei replied to the first question – about the progress of SunTrust Park construction – by saying the ballpark remains “on schedule for opening day in ‘17” despite some rockiness, literally.
