Braves Contend County Broke Baseball Lease
Milwaukee Braves charge Milwaukee County breached the 1965 home games lease at County Stadium, paving a path to move to Atlanta. In federal court, the club cites ticket speculator protections, lost season-ticket and broadcast income, and public antagonism by county officials as reasons. The Braves say they sold 119,000 tickets at reduced rates and, if needed, could pay the $175,000 county rental estimate for 1965.
