Rome Emperors
While Rome remains Atlanta’s High-A affiliate, the new Emperors era marks the first time in franchise history that the club has not been named the Braves. The South Atlantic League team, established in 1968, played its first season in Rome in 2003 after relocating from Macon, Ga. Rome, as well as the other teams in the system, are owned and operated by Diamond Baseball Holdings. Prior to the 2022 season, these clubs had been owned by the Braves.
