More about Pedlars Softball Team 1948 & 1949:
One of the most successful seasons in Oshawa's softball history came in 1948 when the Pedlar's Softball Team captured the Ontario Intermediate A championship from Sault Ste. Marie at Oshawa's Alexandra Park. This indeed was a fitting result to celebrate Oshawa's 25th anniversary in O.A.S.A. ranks. In 1949 the name Oshawa again appears in the O.A.S.A. list of champions when the Pedlar's Team successfully defended the All-Ontario Intermediate against North Bay, where all three games were played. The Pedlar's Team of 1948, 1949 brought great honour to the City and is worthy of induction into the Sports Hall of Fame.
