The Cincinnati Reds play the first game of every season in Cincinnati. This is because the Cincinnati Red Stockings became the first professional team in baseball history back in the 1870's, and have traditionally received the right to play the season opener at home ever since.

The first NY Rangers 50 goal scorer was Vic Hadfield.
"Fifty first" is spelled as "fiftieth" and "first."
The Cincinnati Red Stockings were the first professional baseball club, formed in 1869. For a period in the 1950's they were known as the Cincinnati Redlegs, but then settled on Cincinnati Reds. To pay respect to heritage, for many years the first pitch of a season was always thrown at Cincinnati, always a home game for the Reds. Opening Day is still held every year in Cincinnati, and although the American League has started earlier on a few occasions the first pitch in the National League is still thrown on Opening Day in Cincinnati.
The Cincinnati Bengals' first season as a member of the American Football League was 1968. Their record was 3-11 that year.
Joey Votto is the first baseman for the Cincinnati Reds! He is really talented and came in second in NL rookie of the year 2008! Hope he has a great '09 season! I know he will! :)
