While the veteran skipper may not have managed the Braves forever, he was certainly at the helm for quite some time.
Cox said early this season that the 2010 campaign would be his last, a season that officially came to an end Monday night when his Braves fell to the San Francisco Giants in the NLDS.
It's the end of a great run in Atlanta for Cox who quickly elevated himself to one of the best managers in baseball. Cox retired fourth on the all-time list of winningest managers and leaves the game with a World Series ring that he got when led the Braves to a 1995 World Series title.
He was a three-time NL Manager of the Year with Atlanta and helped establish the Braves as one of baseball's powerhouses in the 1990s.
The '90s were his finest years in Atlanta, but they weren't his first. In fact, Cox spent two tenures in Atlanta, the first one starting all the way back in 1978.
The question is, how many years did those stints last? How many years did Cox serve as manager of the Atlanta Braves?
