Janesville Daily Gazette, Monday, June 12, 1916: SOX WIN GAME WITH ROCKFORD NINE, 2-1 Chilson Pitches Red Sox to Victory Over Rockford South Side Mer- chants at Yost's. Al Chilson pitched for the Red Sox Sunday afternoon, and his heaving, along with a timely bingle by Spohn, won the game with the Rockford Mer- chants by the score of two to one Sun- day at Yost's Park. The game was the best played by the Red Sox so far this season, and with Chilson pitching the Sox expect to start an- other winning streak. Fast work on the defense and sharp fielding featured the game. Neither side scored until the fourth, when both teams counted one run. The game was a tie until the eighth in- ning. With two down, Spohn scored Roherty from second on his single, winning the game. Chilson allowed but five scattered hits and struck out nine Rockford players. The Sox scored eight hits off McEntes, and seven fanned. Next Sunday the Sox play the Hanover Giants at Yost Park. Frank McGinley, the Red Sox third sacker, was able to cover his position for five innings, and then was relieved by Dopp. The lineups follow: Red Sox—Spohn, c; Chilson, p; Jackson, ss; Miller, 1b; Hill, 2b; Mc- Ginley and Dopp, 3b; Roh
