Mazzone worked his way through Atlanta’s system as a minor league pitching coach before embarking on a 16-year run as the pitching coach for the Braves from 1990-2005. Between 1991 and 1998, three of his pitchers won a total of six Cy Young Awards – Tom Glavine (1991 & 1998), Greg Maddux (1993-95) and John Smoltz (1996). Considered one of the greatest pitching coaches in Major League Baseball history, Mazzone helped guide the Braves to a World Series Championship in 1995. On July 30, 2022, Mazzone was inducted into the Atlanta Braves Hall of Fame.
