William Winfield Clark (April 11, 1875 – April 15, 1959) was a professional baseball player. He was an infielder for one season (1897) with the Louisville Colonels. For his career, he compiled a .188 batting average in 16 at-bats, with two runs batted in.[1]
In 1908, Clark was managing the Columbia (S.C.) Chicks of the South Atlantic League when he was stabbed by one of his own players, John Bender (the brother of Baseball Hall of Fame member Chief Bender). He was let go as Columbia manager following that season.
He was born in Circleville, Ohio and later died in Los Angeles, California at the age of 84.
