Arthur Lee Daney (July 9, 1904 – March 11, 1988) was an American Major League Baseball pitcher. He played for the Philadelphia Athletics during the season.
Daney's father was a full-blooded Choctaw and his mother was one-half Choctaw and one-half Irish. He was the youngest of eleven children and attended the Haskell Institute. Athletics coach Ira Thomas discovered Daney playing semi-pro baseball in Denver and signed him to a contract before the start of the 1928 season.[1]
