BERNIE WILLIAMS PUERTO RICAN COMEBACK DERAILED

Former New York Yankees centerfielder Bernie Williams’ comeback may be over. Williams went 1-for-3 in his Puerto Rican League debut for Carolina on December 22, but has since injured his quad playing for the Gigantes, according to the New York Journal News. His last game was an 0-for-1 performance on December 26. Out of baseball since 2006, Williams has been concentrating on his music career since then.


Ponce leads the Puerto Rico League standings at 24-14, well ahead of 19-16 Arecibo. Arecibo closed the gap a little last Wednesday night with a 13-2 clubbing of Mayaguez, thanks in part to Chris Heisey’s grand slam. Ponce lost to Carolina, 5-4, as the Gigantes’ Wilberto Ortiz drove in three runs over going ten games without an RBI for two teams.
