My Take
Dallas Williams is the kind of name only a baseball lifer would recognize, and that's exactly why I find him interesting. Two cups of coffee in the majors with the Orioles and Reds, a season with the Hankyu Braves in Japan, and now hitting coach work in the Mexican League with Campeche. To me that arc says more about love of the game than any highlight reel could. The big leagues barely gave him a window, yet decades later he's still in a dugout passing on what he knows. That quiet persistence, hopping borders to stay in baseball, is what sticks with me.
Overview
