Anthony Joseph "Antone" Williamson (born July 18, 1973) is an American former Major League Baseball (MLB) first baseman who played for the Milwaukee Brewers in 1997.

Amateur career

[edit]

Williamson attended Arizona State University, and in 1992 he played collegiate summer baseball with the Harwich Mariners of the Cape Cod Baseball League.[1]

Professional career

[edit]

Williamson was a first-round draft pick (fourth overall) by the Milwaukee Brewers in the 1994 MLB Draft.[2] He played minor league baseball for most of his career, and had a .271 batting average, and 415 hits in his six-year minor-league career.

Williamson's only Major League action came in a 24-game stint in 1997 for the Brewers. In those 24 games, he recorded a .204 average. He played first base, and occasionally pinch-hit. He left affiliated baseball in 2000 to play for the independent Greenville Bluesmen of the Texas–Louisiana League, after which he retired.
