1972-77 REDS

-

14 POINTS

Two titles (1975, 1976), one other pennant (1972), one other LCS trip (1973)

Still the last National League team to win back-to-back championsh­ips. The Big Red Machine title teams boasted one of the best lineups ever with Hall of Famers Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan and Tony Perez, all-time hit king Pete Rose, slugger George Foster, plus Ken Griffey Jr. and Dave Concepcion. Cincinnati would vie with the 1998-99 Yankees for best two-year team.
