John Joseph Keane was an American professional baseball manager and coach. He managed in Major League Baseball for four complete seasons and parts of two others. Keane is perhaps best remembered as manager of the St. Louis Cardinals who defeated the New York Yankees in the 1964 World Series. After that season, he unexpectedly resigned as manager of the Cardinals and was subsequently hired to manage the Yankees.
Keane finally reached the majors in 1959, when he was named the Cardinals' third-base-coach. He replaced Solly Hemus as manager on July 6, 1961. In his 3.5 seasons as Cardinal pilot, he compiled a record of 317-249 (.540) and his crucial positive role in mentoring young Cardinal players, especially star pitcher Bob Gibson.
