James Julius Levey (September 13, 1906 – March 14, 1970) was a Major League Baseball shortstop who played from 1930 to 1933 for the St. Louis Browns.

He made his big league debut that season, on September 17, and with the Browns he hit .243 in 37 at-bats.

[1] He had perhaps his best offensive season in 1932, hitting .280 with 30 doubles and eight triples in 152 games, and came in 19th in the National League MVP voting.

On December 13, 1933, he was traded with Wally Hebert and Smead Jolley to the Hollywood Stars of the Pacific Coast League for Alan Strange.

He did not play in 1943 as he served in the United States Army, however in 1944 he was back with Buffalo, hitting .200 in 200 at-bats.

[citation needed] 1945 was his final professional season, and arguably one of his best – he hit a career-high .302 in 348 at-bats for the Jamestown Falcons.

1936 was his final year with the Pittsburgh Pirates, as he played in four games and rushed the ball four times, gaining three yards for a 0.8 average.
