Milwaukee Brewers' Impressive Win Streak Continues with Extra-Inning Victory

The **Cincinnati Reds** are a professional Major League Baseball (MLB) team based in Cincinnati, Ohio, with a storied history dating back to 1869, when the Cincinnati Red Stockings became baseball's first openly professional team. Officially founded as the Reds in 1882, the organization is a member of the National League (NL) and is recognized for pioneering milestones, including playing the first MLB night game in 1935 and having Johnny Vander Meer throw the only back-to-back no-hitters in MLB history in 1938[1][2][5]. Historically, the Reds have won **five World Series titles** (1919, 1940, 1975, 1976, 1990), with their first championship in 1919 overshadowed by the Black Sox Scandal, where the opposing Chicago White Sox were accused of throwing the series. The team’s success in the mid-20th century was highlighted by stars like Frank Robinson and Pete Rose, who fueled the dominant "Big Red Machine" era in the 1970s, culminating in consecutive World Series victories in 1975 and 1976. The Reds’ 1990 championship was marked by key players such as Eric Davis and Barry Larkin, delivering a four-game sweep over Oakland[1][3][6]. The Reds have also contributed notable innovations, including being the first to use an airplane for team travel in 1934 and hosting some of the most iconic ballparks, such as Crosley Field and the modern Great American Ballpark opened in 2003[4][6].
