George J. "Germany" Smith (April 21, 1863 – December 1, 1927) was an American Major League Baseball player from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Primarily a shortstop, Smith played for five teams in 15 seasons.
He made his major league debut for Altoona Mountain City of the Union Association in 1884.
After Altoona's team folded after just 25 games, he jumped to the Cleveland Blues of the National League.
After the 1884 season, Cleveland then sold him, along with 6 other players, to the Brooklyn Bridegrooms for $4000.
