Introduction: Cincinnati Reds
Cincinnati Red Stockings (1882-1889), Cincinnati Reds (1890-1953), Cincinnati Redlegs (1954-1958), Cincinnati Reds (1959-present)

The Cincinnati Reds compete in Major League Baseball as a member club of the National League (NL) Central division. The franchise was created in 1882 as a founding member of the now defunct American Association. With the failure of the American Association, the Reds transferred to the rival National League in 1890, where they still compete today.

The team currently plays their home games at Cincinnati's Great American Ball Park (2003-present). Before that, they played at Riverfront Stadium (1970-2002); Crosley Field, Palace of the Fans, and League Park (all different names for the same ballpark, 1884-1970); and Bank Street Grounds (1882-1883).

The Reds have won five World Series championships in the team's history, including against the Chicago White Sox in 1919, the Detroit Tigers in 1940, the Boston Red Sox in 1975, the New York Yankees in 1976, and the Oakland A's in 1990. Additionally, the Cincinatti Reds have won nine National League pennants in the team's history.

Note: Be aware that in the early years baseball teams used pennants rather than flags, and a host of manufacturer's variants of these pennants and later fan flags were marketed for the Reds and their fans. They include flags, banners, and pennants too numerous to all be shown here.

About the flag

The official flag of the Cincinnati Reds features their current logo centered on a red field. The current logo, adopted in 1999, shows a stylized white "C," fimbriated black and red, with the word "REDS" in white capital letters within the "C."

The team's flag is also sometimes shown on a black or white field in addition to the traditional red.

Division Championship flags

In Major League Baseball, a team that wins their respective league championship prior to reaching the World Series is said to have "won the pennant." This refers to the original reward for said team, which was the authorization to fly at their home field a pennant denoting the team as the champions. This tradition continues today, with teams that have "won the pennant" flying at their home stadiums pennants representing their historical championships.

These popular variants of the American national flag have been produced for all the MLB teams and displayed by their enthusiastic fans. In the canton of the first illustrated here, the white stars of the national flag have been removed and replace with the current Reds logo on a red canton. The 13 red and white stripes remain. The second variant shown here features the Reds' wishbone "C" logo as well as less stripes and less stars, 11 red and black stripes and 17 stars on a black canton to be exact. Both of these designs can be found incorporating either of the team's logos in the canton.
