On September 10, 2023, the Braves were the first team in Major League Baseball during this season to clinch a playoff spot. [1] On September 12, the Braves broke the National League record for most home runs in a season with their 281st home run, breaking the old mark set by the 2019 Los Angeles Dodgers. [2] On September 13, the Braves clinched the National League East title for the sixth consecutive season. [3] On September 26, the Braves reached their 300th home run of the season, becoming just the third team in MLB history to do so, joining the 2019 Minnesota Twins and the 2019 New York Yankees. [4] On October 1, the last game of the regular season, the Braves hit their 307th home run, tying the 2019 Minnesota Twins for the most home runs hit by a team in a single season; additionally, first baseman Matt Olson broke the single-season home run record for the Braves, with 54. [5]

The team also set the record for highest team slugging percentage in a season at .501, breaking the old record of .495 set by the 2019 Houston Astros. [5] The Braves ended the season with 104 wins, the highest number of wins for the franchise since 1998. Because of these highly strong offensive numbers, the 2023 Braves are often regarded as one of the greatest baseball offenses of all time.

The Braves were defeated in four games in the NLDS by the Philadelphia Phillies, the same team that defeated them in the NLDS the previous season. Outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. was awarded the NL MVP award at the end of the season, after posting the first-ever 40-70 season in MLB history.
