Today is opening day. The first pitch of Braves' Opening Day will be thrown out by Hank Aaron on Friday and the game against the San Diego Padres is set to begin at 7:35 p.m. Tickets are sold out. Friday's game is the first of a four-game home series with the Padres. (A small number of tickets are available on the secondary market).
Braves players are expected to wear their home white uniforms -- with numbers only on the back (red with a thin trimming in dark blue).

The team mascot, who has a large, baseball-shaped head, is known as "Homer the Brave." He replaced Chief Noc-A-Homa, a long-time mascot who is likely the most famous and perhaps iconic sports mascot in Atlanta history. As years went on, Noc-A-Homa had his moments such as introducing "Princess Win-A-Lotta'' in 1983. But the Braves were getting criticism that the mascot was racially insensitive. Some Braves fans still miss Chief Noc-A-Homa.
