He was featured in an article in the June 14, 1971, issue of Sports Illustrated magazine. In 1974, Huyke began his managerial career. He managed in the Pirates' organization from 1974 through 1989, and 1990 through 2004. He voluntarily stepped down as manager after the 2004 season, remaining with the Gulf Coast League Pirates as a coach. One of Woody's early successes, in 1989, was identifying Tim Wakefield's potential as a knuckleball pitcher (at the time, Wakefield was a light-hitting first baseman) and convincing the Pittsburgh Pirates organization not to release him. In 2010, Huyke won the Mike Coolbaugh Award for his mentoring of minor league players. (en)
