The Milwaukee Braves were an original OOSL franchise. Their five year OOSL career record stands at 381-389 for a .495 Winning Percentage. Two of the original OOSL teams were disbanded at the end of 1998 to make way for the OOSL American Association -- the Milwaukee Braves were one of them. Milwaukee finished with the highest winning percentage among the eight teams that were sliced from the OOSL ledger to start the 1999 season.
Milwaukee had their best season in 1996 when they finished just 3 games back of Division leader Cincinnati with 84 wins. Early Wynn and Ted Lyons anchored their staff that year, with Lyons winning a franchise best 18 games. Harry Heilmann hit only .260 but led the team with 84 RBI that season. During his career with the Braves, Heilmann recorded franchise bests in Batting Average (.324 in `97), Home Runs (23 in `95), and RBI (87 in `95), giving him a Milwaukee "Triple Crown". Along with Lyons and Wynn, Urban Shocker is the most notable hurler in Milwaukee's history. Urban had a huge season in `98, notching 28 saves in 137 relief innings wile compiling a sparkling 1.84 ERA.
