Books and articles about Jimmy Williams

Williams was dubbed "Home Run" when he hit a career-high nine homers as a rookie in 1899. He led the NL with 27 triples that season, and led the AL with 21 in both 1901 and 1902. Though he broke in at third base, he was a steady, far-ranging second baseman most of his career. (JK)
