1932 Statistics

Southern League

Outfielder Bill Clayton of the Milestone Sioux is the 1932 batting king in the Southern League. Clayton had 23 hits in 63 times at bat for a .365 average and just edged out catcher Oak Toombs of the Moose Jaw All-Stars by one percentage point. Runner-up Toombs laced out 20 hits in 55 at bats and finished at .364.

Dave Clayton, Milestone catcher, came in third, slamming the ball at a .353 clip. The Sioux backstop also led the circuit in three categories, runs scored with 13, base hits with 24 and a whopping 15 stolen bases, a total which dwarfed all other pilferers. Revere "Babe" Brossard of the Regina Nationals, last season's batting champ, and Johnny Dawson of Moose Jaw tied for the honor of most total bases, each having 27.

Below is a listing of those who batted .300 or above.

Moose Jaw's Wilf Pennington led the hurlers with seven wins.  He also led the league in games, 14, games started, 9, and complete games, 9.
