| Description | Morris, "Base Ball Pioneers" p. 224 mentions the Pioneer and Union Base Ball Clubs formed in Rockford in 1865. I've given it an artificial start date of September to insure that the Forest City Club is recognized as the first Rockford club. Future Hall of Famer Albert Spalding played on this club. According to Spalding, in the fall of 1865 the Pioneers beat the city merchants in a game 26-2 (Spalding, National Pastime, p. 118). This was a game Oct. 6th, 1865. |

Win/Loss Records As Far As We Now Know
Warning: Users should not rely on a team's won-loss record as a reflection of its "standing" among all base ball clubs. Team schedules were not balanced, and a good record against mostly weak opponents does not signify a leading club.
