After the Washington Nationals' come-from-behind win in Game 5 of the National League Division Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers, the Cincinnati Reds are the not-so-proud owners of the longest current drought without a playoff-round win of any Major League Baseball franchise.

The Reds' last postseason-round win came on Oct. 6, 1995 - a 10-1 win against the Dodgers at Riverfront Stadium to complete a three-game sweep of the National League Division Series before the Atlanta Braves swept the Reds in the National League Championship Series that year.
