In the tradition of Independence Day, I decided to look back a one memorable moment in Atlanta sports history. It turned out to be one of the craziest, if not infamous, baseball games played. Fittingly it involved your Atlanta Braves.On July 4, 1985, 44,947 baseball fans settled in for a matchup between the New York Mets and your Atlanta Braves at an also now defunct Atlanta Fulton County Stadium.
