On February 25, 1933, Tom Yawkey bought the Red Sox for $1.25 million from J.A. Robert Quinn, and persuaded friend and former Philadelphia Athletics second baseman Eddie Collins to be the team's vice president and general manager.[1]

There were five rainouts during the season, one against the Washington Senators and a four game series against the Chicago White Sox that was cancelled due to the remnants of the 1933 Outer Banks hurricane, which passed to the southeast of New England during the third weekend of September.
