A third Base Ball club in Janesville was organized in the summer 1866, as the July 6 Janesville Daily Gazette wrote: “The members of the new Base Ball Club will meet at Dr. Pendleton’s office tomorrow evening, July 7th, at 8 o’clock, for the purpose of organizing the club, electing officer, &c.” The club did meet, elected officers and named themselves the Badger Base Ball Club. The club decided to practice at the grounds of the Bower City club. (Janesville Daily Gazette 7-11-1860)
