  • Atlanta Braves Clippings Wednesday, May 18, 2016 Braves.Com
    Atlanta Braves Clippings Wednesday, May 18, 2016 Braves.com Gonzalez dismissed as manager of Braves Snitker promoted from Triple-A to be interim skipper By Mark Bowman / MLB.com | @mlbbowman | 12:24 AM ET PITTSBURGH -- Experiencing their worst start to a season in more than 100 years, the Braves made their first in-season managerial change in more than a quarter century on Tuesday, relieving Fredi Gonzalez of his duties and elevating Triple-A Gwinnett manager Brian Snitker to interim manager.
