1932 International League season

BR page

The 1932 International League season saw a significant change, as four teams were now farm clubs for major league teams, up from one the prior year. Among the changes was Newark affiliating with the New York Yankees, establishing a 1930s powerhouse in the IL. It also saw the first in-season franchise move in seven years, as Reading moved to Albany. Don Brennan led the league in wins, ERA, complete game and shutouts - but not in strikeouts, the category he had led in 1931.
