Milwaukee Braves All Time First Baseman |
 |
| Although overshadowed by teammates Eddie Mathews and Hank Aaron, Joe Adcock was a notable slugger for the Braves in the 1950's In 1954, he accomplished the rare feat of homering four times in a single game and set a new record for most total bases in a game (18) that stood until 2002. Another notable homerun was the blast that ended the epic duel between Lew Burdette and Harvey Haddix in May 1959, in which Haddix took a perfect game into the 12th inning. |
