    The Ivan Allen Jr. Braves Museum and Hall of Fame has unveiled a new exhibit entitled "14 Straight," featuring more than 200 Braves artifacts and photographs inside 14 Braves lockers filled with unique memorabilia, from the 1991 - 2005 seasons.
    Some of the pieces of Braves history on display in the "14 Straight" exhibit include: Terry Pendleton's 1991 MVP Award; Sid Bream's knee brace from the 1992 season; 10 game-used bats from the 1995 World Series Championship season; the line-up card from the first game at Turner Field in 1997; Chipper Jones' 1999 MVP Award; and more than 50 game-worn jerseys from players including Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine, Andruw Jones, and John Smoltz.

    "The '14 Straight' exhibit provides a great opportunity for Braves fans of all ages to visit the Braves Museum or take a tour of Turner Field and re-live some of the great moments they have witnessed throughout the past 15 years," said Carolyn Serra, the Director of the Braves Museum and Hall of Fame.

    The Ivan Allen Jr. Braves Museum and Hall of Fame is open year-round and is the starting point for Turner Field tours. During baseball season, tours are offered Monday-Saturday from 9 a.m. - 3 p.m. and Sundays from 1-3 p.m. There are no tours when a Braves day game is played at home. Turner Field tour prices are $10 for adults and $5 for children 13 and under, and a discount is available for groups of 20 or more. For more information or group tour reservations, call 404-614-2311. The Braves Museum is also open to game day ticket holders starting 2.5 hours before each game until the middle of the seventh inning for a $2 admission.

    The Atlanta Braves, a division of Turner Broadcasting System, Inc., is Major League Baseball's winningest franchise since 1991. Since then, Braves teams have earned a record 14 consecutive division championships, five National League pennants and a World Series title. Based in Atlanta since 1966, the Braves franchise is the longest continuously operating franchise in Major League Baseball. Atlanta Braves games are telecast nationally on TBS and regionally on Turner South and FSN South, with radio broadcasts heard in Atlanta on 640 WGST and 96 Rock and regionally on the Atlanta Braves Radio Network.
