2000 Cincinnati Reds season

The 2000 Cincinnati Reds season was the 131st season for the franchise in Major League Baseball. It consisted of the Cincinnati Reds attempting to win the National League Central, although coming short in 2nd place. They had a record of 85 wins and 77 losses.[1] The Reds became only the second team in the modern era of baseball not be shut out for an entire season, joining the 1932 New York Yankees. The 2020 Los Angeles Dodgers later accomplished this feat, but their season was shortened to 60 games due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
