In 1858, Cincinnati, Ohio is the second most populated city, per capita outside of Manhattan, New York. It is also one of the final destination spots for the Underground Railroad, freeing runaway slaves from the oppressive south, and the young and evolving sport of baseball, takes it's roots in the city. In 1869, the Cincinnati Red Stockings become the first professional baseball team in America. This week, we examine the long and storied history of baseball in the Queen City, including a rich Negro League tradition, the rise and fall of Riverfront Stadium, and the construction of today's baseball cathedral The Great American Ballpark, where the Reds have called home since 2003. #CincinnatiReds #RiverfrontStadium #GreatAmericanBallpark #CrosleyField #BigRedMachine #RedStockings #RedLegs #TownBall #BomDeBeck #WilliamCoolidge #UnionCricketClub #EdRoush #FrankRobinson #PeteRose #JoeMorgan #CincinnatiBengals #CincinnatiTigers #CharlieGrant
