As a Canadian, I'm happy that Pete got his start in pro ball up here in the then-Class B Provincial League with the Trois-Rivieres (Quebec) Foxes. Baseball-Reference lists his first season as being 1942, but they're apparently incorrect, as this 1938 team ball shows. I was very fortunate to find this on eBay many years ago. It came with a RPPC team photo. Pete's empty jacket sleeve is tucked into his pocket if I recall. I don't seem to have a scan of it to share right now, but here's the ball.
