The embedding was disabled on this video, but that's okay because it's worth watching the full-size version. It's a fantastic, full-length promotional video for the Pacific Coast League in 1946.
It contains an introduction by league president Clarence H. "Pants" Rowland and some of the only known color footage still in existence showing each of the teams in the league working out at their spring training camps.
