The baseball team known as the Cincinnati Reds was first founded in 1863 but they did not become professionals until 1869.
The Reds have had a lot of success in the league as they won several Pennants, Division titles and 5 different World Series titles; their most recent in 1990.
Some of the Reds star players we can mention are: the brothers Harry and George Wright, Fred Waterman and pitcher Asa Brainard as well as Jim Malonet, Johnny Bench, Lee May, Pete Rose, Gary Nolan.
During the 1930’s the Reds’ pitcher Johnny Vander Meer became the only pitcher in major league history to throw back-to-back no hitters.
In 2003 the team’s new stadium – Great American Ball Park - opened its doors. Just last year in 2007 the Reds had a record of 72-90 and got 5th in the NL Central. |
The 2008 season is the 127th season for the Reds that will attempt to win their first NL Central Division title since 1995.
