#139 KELLY MANN

FAVORITE BRAVES PLAYERS OF THE 1980'S
#139 KELLY MANN
ATLANTA BRAVES 1989-1990
AND ON THE LIST WITHIN A LIST...
COMING IN AT #12 ON THE
BRAVES OF THE 80's 
MOONLIGHT GRAHAM AWARD CANDIDATE LIST

Kelly actually played in two major league seasons with the Braves (too much playing time for the Moonlight Graham award) and nine hits in 53 at-bats for a .173 average. 

On September 5, 1990, the Braves beat the Reds 10-0 behind Tom Glavine and home runs by Lonnie Smith, Ron Gant and David Justice. That sounds like the good Braves of the 90's! But wait, this game also included the only career home run of our "mann of the hour," Mr. Kelly Mann! 

Kelly had too many at-bats to win the Moonlight Graham award, but i will present him with a complimentary Chico's Bail Bonds t-shirt.
