ATLANTA -- Hall of Fame manager Bobby Cox has made his first return to SunTrust Park, five months after suffering a stroke.
Cox returned to see both teams he managed, Atlanta and Toronto, open an interleague series on Monday.
Cox smiled and waved when shown on the video board under a message which read "Welcome Home." Fans and Braves players applauded and cheered.
Cox sat in a private box with team executives, including former general manager John Schuerholz.
The 78-year-old Cox has regained feeling on his right side, as well as speech, and was able to walk Monday as he continues to recover from the April 3 stroke.
