The 1891 Cincinnati Kelly's Killers season was a season in American baseball. The "Kelly" in the name came from manager King Kelly, who was also the team's starting catcher. In 1891, their only season of existence, they finished with a record of 43–57, good for sixth place in the American Association, 32½ games behind the Boston Reds.
