Cincinnati Reds Stats & Team History

The Cincinnati Reds were initially founded as the Cincinnati Red Stockings in the American Association in 1881. In 1890, they left the American Association to join the National League, subsequently joining the MLB. The team briefly changed its name to the Cincinnati Redlegs from 1954 to 1958 before returning to the Reds in 1959. The Reds won their first World Series in 1919, then went to back-to-back World Series in 1939 and 1940. The Reds team’s stats were at their highest during a run from 1970 to 1979, making the playoffs six times with four World Series appearances, winning two back-to-back in 1975 and 1976. This era earned them the nickname “The Big Red Machine.” The Reds won their fifth and most recent World Series in 1990.

Pete Rose headlines the Cincinnati Reds team stats, as he is the all-time MLB hit leader, playing 19 years for the Reds. He has played a role in three of the five Reds World Series wins.
