The 1992 Cincinnati Reds season was the 123rd season for the franchise in Major League Baseball, and their 23rd and 22nd full season at Riverfront Stadium. The Reds finished in second place in the National League West with a record of 90 wins and 72 losses.
This was the final season in which the Reds donned the pullover jersey and beltless pants uniform style first worn in 1972 (the Reds being the last MLB team still wearing them). Following this season they switched back to a traditional baseball uniform. This was also the final season they wore their Big Red Machine era uniforms which were introduced in 1967. http://cincinnati.reds.mlb.com/cin/history/uniforms_logos.jsp dead https://web.archive.org/web/20070222124227/http://cincinnati.reds.mlb.com/cin/history/uniforms_logos.jsp 2007-02-22 The Official Site of The Cincinnati Reds: History: Reds Uniforms and Logos
