"I played with Smoky Joe Wood on Cleveland. His arm went bad to where he couldn't pitch anymore. But he could really throw hard at one time. Had one year [1912] where he won thirty-four games with the Red Sox. He hit pretty good and he was a good outfielder, so he alternated with Elmer Smith in right field for a few years." - George Uhle in Cobb Would Have Caught It (1993)
