Clemson catcher Chris Williams was supposed to miss four to six weeks after injuring his left hand during the team’s intrasquad scrimmage on Feb. 12, five days prior to the start of the season.
Well, a little more than two weeks later, Williams made a surprise appearance in Clemson’s game against Wofford on Tuesday.
Williams entered the contest as a defensive replacement at catcher in the ninth inning of the Tigers’ 9-2 win.
“It was good to get Chris Williams a little bit of action,” Clemson head coach Monte Lee said. “He just had his stitches taken out of his hand, and I wanted to try to get him in there if at all possible.
