The 1941 Boston Red Sox season was the 41st season in the franchise's Major League Baseball history. The Red Sox finished second in the American League (AL) with a record of 84 wins and 70 losses, 17 games behind the New York Yankees, who went on to win the 1941 World Series.
The Red Sox featured five future Hall of Famers: player-manager Joe Cronin, Bobby Doerr, Jimmie Foxx, Lefty Grove, and Ted Williams.
Offseason
[edit]- Prior to 1941 season: Virgil Stallcup was signed as an amateur free agent by the Red Sox.[1]
Regular season
[edit]Williams was one of the biggest stories of the 1941 major league season, becoming, as of 2022[update], the last player to bat .400 (batting .406) in a full season. He led an offense that scored the most runs of any major league team. During the season, Williams reached base safely in 69 consecutive games.[2]
Transactions
[edit]- September 8: The Red Sox announce that they have purchased shortstop Johnny Pesky from the Louisville Colonels and shortstop Eddie Pellagrini from the San Diego Padres of the Pacific Coast League.[3]
