A short history of the Milwaukee White Sox When the Braves moved on to Atlanta in 1966, they again made history. The franchise shifts of the previous decade all involved multi-team cities. During the 1950s, when the Braves, Browns, A’s, Dodgers and Giants packed up and moved, Boston, St. Louis, Philadelphia, and New York were left with one franchise. When the Braves left Milwaukee, they left a void. The city of Milwaukee had been left behind once before.
