Atlanta Braves History: Joe Morgan goes 6-6 against the Braves (July 9, 1965)

Joe Morgan sets an Astro record by going 6- for-6 at Milwaukee's County Stadium on July 8, 1965 . The rookie second baseman's stellar performance doesn't stop the Milwaukee Braves from beating Houston, 9-8 that day.

Of course the Braves are now in Atlanta and we have the Milwaukee Brewers. Hard to keep up with it all some days. And the Astro's no longer play at the Astro Dome. I saw lots of great games there when I lived in Houston.

Joe Morgan was a great though. Love to see him when he is announcing games.
