The franchise originated in 1869 as the Cincinnati Red Stockings, baseball’s first professional team. They began with a 45-9 beating of a team called the Great Western of Cincinnati, then proceeded to win almost all of their more than seventy games against amateur teams in the Midwest. They finally lost a game in 1870, when the Brooklyn Atlantics bested them 8-7 in extra innings.

The Red Stockings were original members of the National league with teams consisting of: Chicago White Stockings; Hartford Dark Blues; St. Louis Brown Stockings; Boston Red Caps; Louisville Grays; New York Mutuals; Philadelphia Athletics; Cincinnati Red Stockings. They also used the name “Redlegs” for part of the 1950s to avoid any perceived association with Communism during the McCarthy era. The franchise was a charter member of the American Association, then one of the two major leagues, and then joined the National League in 1890.

For the thirty years following their readmission to the National League, the Reds never finished higher than third. Then came the 1919 pennant winners led by Hall of Famer Edd Roush, a .321 hitter that year and probably Cincinnati’s best player up to that time. They had a twenty game winners (Slim Sallee) and two nineteen game winners (Hod Eller & Dutch Ruether) on the pitching staff.
