Historic Baseball: Red Sox-Braves is crosstown rivalry 

One of the things I love about baseball is its sense of its own history. As the Herald-American recognized, this weekend the Boston Red Sox played their crosstown rivals, the Atlanta, formerly Milwaukee, formerly Boston Braves.

I guess this is old news to anybody who reads the sports pages. I tend not to. Here are the matchups for MLB's crosstown interleague weekend.
