The 1967 Cincinnati Reds season was the 98th season for the franchise in Major League Baseball. The Reds finished in fourth place in the National League with a record of 87–75, games behind the NL and World Series Champion St. Louis Cardinals. The Reds were managed by Dave Bristol and played their home games at Crosley Field. This was the first season that the Reds wore their now famous Big Red Machine era uniforms. The uniforms themselves would see minor tweaks throughout the years. By the next season, the red pinstripes were removed and in 1972, the uniforms became pullovers and no longer had buttons. This variant would stay for the rest of its tenure until the uniform was retired all together following the 1992 season after 26 years.
