  Atlanta Braves - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1957, the Braves celebrated their first pennant in nine years led by Aaron's MVP season, leading the National League in home runs and RBIs.
However, none of the other Braves produced at that level, and the team finished in the lower half of the league, or the "second division", for the first time in its short history in Milwaukee.
In 2002, 2003, and 2004 the Braves won their division again, but lost in the NLDS in all three years 3 games to 2, to the San Francisco Giants, Chicago Cubs, and Houston Astros respectively.

 Uniforms of the Atlanta Braves / Milwaukee Braves / Boston Braves by Baseball Almanac
In 1921, the round Braves emblem was dropped in favor of a stylized fancy capital B, curiously similar to the B on the Brooklyn road suits.
The BRAVES lettering of past seasons was repeated on the shirt fronts in red with gold outline trim plus a new twist — a smaller version of the Indian head was positioned smack in the middle of the BRAVES letters.
Although a contender into the early fifties, the Braves couldn’t quite recapture the needed momentum for another flag and as the phenomenal post-war attendance figures began to steadily dwindle, the question of Boston being a two-team town was beginning to surface.
