Braves lifer Brian Snitker receives reward for 44-year investment


Brian Snitker borrowed plenty from Bobby Cox learning to lead a clubhouse. Now, he’s matched his mentor in chasing down the game’s greatest prize, joining Cox as the only Atlanta Braves managers to win the World Series. The championship was the payoff on Snitker’s investment of 44 years as a Braves lifer. He has earned his place in team history. (Associated Press)
