#81 OSCAR BROWN


FAVORITE BRAVES PLAYERS OF THE 1970'S
#81 OSCAR BROWN
ATLANTA BRAVES 1969-1973

Oscar spent part of five seasons with the Atlanta Braves, but I honestly seem to have little recollection of him playing. I do remember his baseball cards, including his sharing of a rookie card with Earl Williams. Oscar only hit four career home runs, but he did hit two of them in back to back games: April 20, 1972 off of Claude Osteen and the Dodgers and April 22, 1972 off of Pedro Borbon and the Reds. He couldn't keep that momentum up and was released after the 1973 season. But he does get extra points for spending all of his playing years in a Braves uniform.
