Williams also had an extensive minor league baseball playing career, spanning eighteen seasons from 1952 to 1969. == Playing career == After spending two seasons with the independent Norton Braves of the Mountain State League, Williams signed with the Cleveland Indians as an amateur free agent in 1954. He spent most of his eighteen seasons as an outfielder in the Indians' farm system; however, he also played some first and third base. In 1968, while with the Chicago White Sox’ Triple-A affiliate, the Hawaii Islanders, Williams pitched in one game, striking out two and walking one, while yielding no hits in two innings pitched. During his brief big league career, Williams made twelve plate appearances, drawing a walk, but not collecting a hit in any of his official at bats. He was also hit by a pitch once, after which he scored his only career run (one out later) on a Tommy Davis single. He was 37 years old when he made his MLB debut. == Coaching == After his playing days, he became owner of Billy Williams' Men's Boutique in Oakland, California.
