Dizzy DEAN

Biography

A short bio from the Helmar-R319 card back: “Dizzy” Dean is the moundleader of the “Gas House Gang.” He has never had a losing season for the Cardinals, racking up 18 wins in ’32, 20 in ’33, 30 in ’34, 28 in ’35, and 24 in ’36, with a season’s ERA never above 3.17. “Ol’ Diz” won 2 games and lost 1 in the Cardinals’ victorious 1934 World Series. During the 7th game, which the Cardinals won 11-0, player-manager Frankie Frisch called time and warned Dizzy that he will be removed from the game unless he stops clowning around. Dizzy replied, “No you won’t,” and Frisch silently retreated to his position. Dizzy is 6’2” and 183 pounds.
