A native of Pasadena, Direaux made his Negro leagues debut in 1937 with the Washington Elite Giants. He played for the Elite Giants again the following season when the team moved to Baltimore.[1][2] After a season without a team, Direax moved to the Mexican League, playing for Alijadores de Tampico from 1940 until 1943.[1] Spending a season with Azules de Veracruz, Direaux returned to Tampico for the 1944 season, before transferring once more to Diabolos Rojos del México, where he retired 1945.[1]
