The sentence that uses correct punctuation is, Because Stevie always knew something about everything, Grandpa always called him "a walking encyclopedia". The phrase "a walking encyclopedia" is enclosed in quotation marks in order to give emphasis to this phrase. Since this sentence is a complex sentence, the dependent and independent clause should be separated with a comma.
