Hoey's first involvement with baseball was as the business manager for New York Giants owner Andrew Freedman in 1898.[1] In July 1899, Hoey was named manager of the Giants, succeeding John B. Day, under whom the team had gone 29–35.[2] Managing the 1899 Giants through the end of the season, Hoey compiled a record of 31 wins and 55 losses in 87 games (one contest ended in a tie).[2] It was his only stint as a major league manager.[3]

Outside of baseball, Hoey was a well-known competitor in pigeon-shooting,[1][4] a precursor to the sport of trap shooting. Hoey also worked as a representative for the stables of Joseph E. Widener, and lived the final 20 years of his life in Paris.[5]
