The 1954 Pacific Coast League season was the 51st in the league's history, and ended with the Oakland Oaks winning their first league championship since 1950.

San Diego and Hollywood tied, so there was a one-game playoff for the PCL pennant on September 13 in San Diego, CA. The Padres won 7-2, and this result is reflected in the standings below.
