Comme recrue avec Roanoke au niveau B \u00e0 Piedmont, Slack a gagn\u00e9 15 parties et frapp\u00e9 ,361. Sa meilleure campagne dans les filiales des Sox a \u00e9t\u00e9 en 1957 alors qu\u2019il a r\u00e9colt\u00e9 16 victoires et maintenu une moyenne de points m\u00e9rit\u00e9s de 2,24 \u00e0 Albany (niveau A). Il a atteint le niveau AAA mais s\u2019est ensuite concentr\u00e9 sur une carri\u00e8re d\u2019instructeur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Il a d\u00e9but\u00e9 comme g\u00e9rant dans l\u2019organisation des Red Sox en 1961 et a pass\u00e9 13 saisons \u00e0 Winston-Salem, en Caroline, une \u00e9quipe de niveau A. Au cours de cette p\u00e9riode, il a gagn\u00e9 quatre championnats et a dirig\u00e9 de futures vedettes tel que Jim Rice, Carlton Fisk et Jim Lonborg. Lorsque les Sox ont quitt\u00e9 la Ligue de la Caroline en 1985, les Braves d\u2019Atlanta ont embauch\u00e9 Slack en tant qu\u2019instructeur des lanceurs dans les ligues mineures. Il a \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e0 leur emploi pendant 14 ans, peaufinant les techniques, entre autres, de Steve Avery, John Smoltz et Tom Glavine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Slack attempted to retire in 1999, but the Texas Rangers convinced him to accept a minor league coaching role in 2001 and he would serve as the pitching coach for Carolina League\u2019s Wilmington Blue Rocks in the Kansas City Royals organization the following two years. A legend in Winston-Salem, Slack has more wins than any other manager in Carolina League history. For his efforts, he was named the manager on the Carolina League all-time, all-star team in 1995 and his No. 37 is honoured on the left field wall at Ernie Shore Field in Winston-Salem. Bill passed away on Sunday, November 9, 2025, at his home in Murrells Inlet, S C.,\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
