Modesto Reds
March 14, 2014
The Modesto Reds were a Class A minor league baseball team in the California League from 1966 to 1974. Contrary to what you might expect, the Reds were not a farm club of the Cincinnati Reds. Rather “Reds” was a traditional name for Modesto ball clubs, dating back to the original Reds of the California State League (1914-1915) and a prior Postwar incarnation of the Reds that operated from 1946-1961.
