Who does the #33 on the Sleeve on the Atlanta Braves uniform represent?

Answer 1

Former players Lew Burdette and Johnny Sain. They both wore #33. Both were key players when they played for the Braves. They were traded for each other but both wore #33 while playing for the Braves. Both are deceased. I heard about the patch while listening on radio. Since I live in Atlanta I hear all these little fun facts. But anyways I am sure there is a lot more story if you want to know more, just Google them and I am sure something will pop up.

Answer 2

Sain and Burdette died this past off-season. Both wore #33 during their times with the Braves.
