The 1914 Boston Braves, World Series Champions.

another photo in the thread:
Crittenden Hotel Dining Room, 1914:
Banquet held in honor of Herb Moran of the Boston Braves.
Herb, or Herbie (John Herbert Moran), was born in Costello, Pa. on February 16, 1884.
He was featured in 'Sporting Life', a weekly newspaper, that credited him as being an important factor in the 'Miracle Braves' winning the World Series in 1914. 'Miracle' because the team was dead last in the league all the way to July 18th. But they put together an amazing winning streak over the next two months and then swept the Philly A's in the World Series. The Boston Braves ended up moving to Atlanta to become the Atlanta Braves. He died in 1954 in a small town near Rochester.

Same team Tom. They went from being Boston Braves, then to the Milwaukee Braves, then to Atlanta Braves. For the sake of brevity I skipped their move to Milwaukee to simply point out that the team became the Atlanta Braves.
