长期执教亚特兰大勇士队的鲍比·考克斯已去世，享年84岁。他的球队曾在上世纪90年代称霸国家联盟，并于1995年夺得世界大赛冠军。
亚特兰大勇士队于周六宣布了考克斯的死讯，目前尚未披露更多细节。考克斯曾在2019年中风。
“鲍比是有史以来身着勇士队队服的最佳主教练。他带领我们球队连续14个赛季夺得分区冠军、5座国家联盟冠军奖杯，以及令人难忘的1995年世界大赛冠军。他在勇士队的执教传奇将无人能及，”勇士队在一份声明中说道。
考克斯于1990年6月接手一支排名垫底的球队，并在1991年带领球队从垫底跃升至分区第一，最终在世界大赛中七场不敌明尼苏达双城队。这拉开了连续14个赛季夺得分区冠军的纪录序幕，这一成就此前在任何职业体育项目中都无人达成。
他执教勇士队长达25年，带领亚特兰大夺得队史唯一一座世界大赛冠军奖杯。他在2010赛季结束后退役，并于2014年入选棒球名人堂。
“鲍比是棒球界所有人的宠儿，尤其是那些曾为他效力的球员。他在球员培养和比赛执教细节方面的渊博学识，为他赢得了2014年这项运动的最高荣誉——入选棒球名人堂，”勇士队说道。
截至周六，考克斯以2504胜的战绩在主教练胜场榜上排名历史第四，以4508场执教场次排名第五，以15座分区冠军头衔（包括创纪录的连续14座）排名第一，以16次季后赛执教经历排名第一，以67场季后赛胜场排名第四。
仅有康妮·麦克、约翰·麦格劳和托尼·拉鲁萨的常规赛胜场数超过考克斯。他累计被驱逐出场158次，为主教练历史最多。
“他就是亚特兰大勇士队，”捕手布莱恩·麦肯在2019年说道，“他是最棒的。”
麦肯将考克斯描述为“偶像”和“我们所有人见过的最优秀的人之一”。
勇士队于201年退役了考克斯的6号球衣，同年他入选球队名人堂。
考克斯职业生涯共执教29个大联盟赛季，其中包括在多伦多队的4个赛季。他共计带领球队16次闯入季后赛。他将复古风格带入教练席：始终穿着钉鞋和长筒球袜，父亲般的举止赢得了球员们的忠诚。

Longtime Atlanta Braves manager Bobby Cox, whose teams ruled the National League during the 1990s and won the World Series in 1995, has died. He was 84.
The Atlanta Braves announced Cox’s death Saturday; details weren’t immediately available. Cox had a stroke in 2019.
“Bobby was the best manager to ever wear a Braves uniform. He led our team to 14 straight division titles, five National League pennants, and the unforgettable World Series title in 1995. His Braves managerial legacy will never be matched,” the Braves said in a statement.

Cox took over a last-place team in June 1990 and led the Braves to a worst-to-first finish in 1991, losing the World Series to the Minnesota Twins in seven games. That was the start of what was to be a record 14 consecutive division titles, a feat no professional team in any sport had accomplished.
He managed the Braves for 25 years and led Atlanta to its only World Series title in 1995. He retired after the 2010 season and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2014.
“Bobby was a favorite among all in the baseball community, especially those who played for him. His wealth of knowledge on player development and the intricacies of managing the game were rewarded with the sport’s ultimate prize in 2014 — enshrinement into the Baseball Hall of Fame,” the Braves said.
As of Saturday, Cox ranks fourth all-time with 2,504 wins, fifth with 4,508 games, first with 15 division titles including a record 14 in a row, first with 16 playoff appearances and fourth with 67 playoff victories.
Only Connie Mack, John McGraw and Tony La Russa had more regular-season wins than Cox. His 158 regular-season ejections also was the most among managers.

“He is the Atlanta Braves,” catcher Brian McCann said in 2019. “He’s the best.”
McCann described Cox as an “icon” and “one of the best human beings any of us have ever met.”
The Braves retired Cox’s No. 6 jersey in 2011, when he joined the team’s Hall of Fame.
Cox spent 29 seasons as a major league manager, including four with Toronto. He managed 16 postseason teams. He brought an old-school approach to the dugout. He always wore spikes and stirrups, and his fatherly demeanor inspired loyalty from his players.
