The 1946 Pacific Coast League season was the 43rd in the league's history, and ended with the San Francisco Seals winning their fourth straight league championship. The Seals became the first (and, to date, only) PCL team to accomplish that feat.
Larry Jansen of San Francisco became the last 30-game winner in AAA (through 2009).
