Paul DeanAs a rookie in the season that he turned 21, Paul Dean threw a no-hitter and helped lead the St. Louis Cardinals to the 1934 National League pennant. He then won two games to help the Cardinals win the World Series that year. The younger and less talkative brother of Dizzy Dean, Paul Dee “Daffy” Dean was born on August 14, 1913,1 to sharecroppers Albert Monroe “Ab” Dean and Alma Nelson Dean in Lucas, Logan County, Arkansas. Albert and Alma had five children, two of whom, Charles and Sarah May, died in infancy. Paul had two older brothers, Elmer, born in 1908, and Jay Hanna — to be known later as Dizzy — in 1910. Alma contracted tuberculosis and died in 1918, leaving Ab with three young sons. He later remarried. The Dean family moved to Chickalah, Arkansas, then to Spaulding, Oklahoma, migrating to where they could find work.

Who was Paul Dean?Paul Dee "Daffy" Dean was an American Major League Baseball right-handed pitcher. Born in Lucas, Arkansas, he pitched for the St. Louis Cardinals, the New York Giants, and the St. Louis Browns. Dean played several years of baseball alongside his more notable pitching brother, Jay "Dizzy" Dean. Because of his brother's nickname, Dean also had a nickname, Daffy, but this did not reflect his personality as he was considered quiet and serious. The nickname was mainly a creation of the press. During his rookie season, Dean pitched a no-hitter on September 21, 1934. He finished the year with a 19-11 record to help St. Louis win the National League pennant. In the World Series, he and his brother won two games apiece, combining for a 4-1 record, 28 strikeouts and a 1.43 ERA, as the Cardinals took the series against the Detroit Tigers in seven games. The following year, he won 19 games again. He got injured, however, and pitched ineffectively for the rest of his career.
