"Yost had been with the Senators for 14 years when one day, while relaxing on sun-filled vacation, he opened the newspaper to discover that he had been traded to the Detroit Tigers. 'They don’t usually do things like that,' Yost said now with a laugh. 'But I always liked going to Detroit, I was a pull hitter and it was only 340 feet going down the line. It was a good baseball town and I had one of my best years there — led the league in walks, in runs scored, was a lead-off hitter and my on-base percentage was well over .400.'" - By Michael Ferrigno / Townsman Correspondent in The Wellesley Townsman (01/29/2010, 'Wellesley's 'Walking Man,' Eddie Yost, Source)
