EDMONTON SENIOR LEAGUE
Pete McCready of the Alberta champion Edmonton Cubs was the batting star of the 1933 Edmonton Senior League as he led the circuit in batting average, runs scored, runs batted in and home runs. The slugging centrefielder hit .345 with five homers and 12 RBI. Teammate Phil Horn was the runner-up with a .333 mark.
