====Cincinnati Reds====
The Dodgers' former rivalry with the [[Cincinnati Reds]] was one of the most intense during the 1970s through the early 1990s.<ref>{{cite web|url= https://www.mlb.com/news/book-explores-reds-dodgers-rivalry-c233919226|title=Book Explores Reds-Dodgers Rivalry|date=June 7, 2017|last1=Hagen|first1=Paul|work=[[MLB.com]]|access-date=June 15, 2022}}</ref> They often competed for the NL West division title. From 1970 to 1990, they had eleven 1–2 finishes in the standings, with seven of them being within 5½ games or fewer. Both teams also played in numerous championships during this span, combining to win 10 NL Pennants and 5 World Series titles from {{wsy|1970}}–{{wsy|1990}}, most notably as the [[Big Red Machine]] teams clashed frequently with the [[Tommy Lasorda]]-era Dodgers teams. Reds manager [[Sparky Anderson]] once said, "I don't think there's a rivalry like ours in either league. The Giants are supposed to be the Dodgers' natural rivals, but I don't think the feeling is there anymore. It's not there the way it is with us and the Dodgers."<ref>{{cite magazine|url=http://cnnsi.printthis.clickability.com/pt/cpt?expire=&title=Los+Angeles+and+Cincinnati+have+the+most+inflammatory+-+04.28.75+-+SI+Vault&urlID=455502997&action=cpt&partnerID=289881&fb=Y&url=http%3A%2F%2Fsportsillustrated.cnn.com%2Fvault%2Farticle%2Fmagazine%2FMAG1089769%2Findex.htm%257Ctitle%3DWhere|title=Where There's Smoke There's Ire|date=April 28, 1975|first=Ron|last=Fimrite|magazine=Sports Illustrated|access-date=June 26, 2011|archive-date=March 12, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120312043515/http://cnnsi.printthis.clickability.com/pt/cpt?expire=&title=Los+Angeles+and+Cincinnati+have+the+most+inflammatory+-+04.28.75+-+SI+Vault&urlID=455502997&action=cpt&partnerID=289881&fb=Y&url=http:%2F%2Fsportsillustrated.cnn.com%2Fvault%2Farticle%2Fmagazine%2FMAG1089769%2Findex.htm%7Ctitle=Where|url-status=dead}}</ref> The rivalry ended when division realignment moved the Reds to the NL Central.
