In his first year managing the Senators, he helped remarkably improve the hitting of several guys who had never hit much. Eddie Brinkman, an all field no hit SS hit something like .280 under Williams. That was probably 50 points over his career average. Mike Epstein also had a very good year if memory serves me correctly. I think Aurelio Rodriguez also blossomed under Williams. Williams problem was that he hated pitcher, especially bad pitchers like the Senators/Rangers had.
