History

The Reds were one of the six original teams of the Pioneer League when it was formed in 1939. The Reds were league champions in 1940 and 1941, finishing in fourth place and second place, respectively, during the regular season before winning the postseason playoffs. The team competed through the 1955 season, except for three years during World War II when the league did not operate. Hall of Fame inductee Frank Robinson played for the Reds in 1953. After the Reds' final season in Ogden, the city would not have another minor league team until the Ogden Dodgers arrived in 1966.
