Description | The Wilmington (IL) Independent, Oct. 16, 1867: "Last Thursday morning the first nine of the Kankakee Base Ball Club stopped here on their way home from Morris, where they had attended a tournament, and challenged our first nine. The match was played on the grounds on the west side of the river...The score was Kankakee 59, Wilmington 16. Each team made 27 outs." Same Nov. 13, 1867: "Last Thursday a very interesting game was played between the Grove City Club, of Kankakee, and the Tempests, of Wilmington, resulting rather disastrously to our boys." |
