The 1947 Pacific Coast League season was the 45th in the league's history. It ended with the Los Angeles Angels winning their first league championship since 1934.

Los Angeles and San Francisco finished tied, so there was a one-game playoff for the PCL pennant on September 29th in Los Angeles, CA. The Angels won 5-0, and this result is reflected in the standings below.
