Brian Michael McCann, (born February 20, 1984 in Athens, Georgia), is a Major League Baseball player. He was selected by the Atlanta Braves in the 2nd Round of the 2002 June free agent baseball draft. McCann advanced steadily through the Braves' minor league system playing for the Rome Braves (Low A) in 2003, the Myrtle Beach Pelicans (High A) in 2004, and the Mississippi Braves (AA) in 2005.
McCann made his major league debut with the Atlanta Braves on June 10, 2005. McCann, a personal catcher for John Smoltz for most of the 2005 season, hit his first home run in just his second regular-season game, and became the first Braves player in franchise history to hit a home run in his first playoff at-bat on October 6, 2005, accomplishing the feat in the second inning of a 7-1 victory over Roger Clemens and the Houston Astros.
