Career highlights and awards

William Hambly Stoneman III (born April 7, 1944) is a former professional baseball player, a right-handed pitcher who threw two no-hitters during his eight-year major league career. He served as the general manager of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim from 1999 to 2007, and continued with the Angels as a consultant after stepping down. He was named the interim general manager of the Angels on July 1, 2015, following the resignation of Jerry Dipoto.

A 1962 graduate of West Covina High School in southern California, Stoneman spent a year at Mt. SAC in Walnut, then transferred north to the University of Idaho in Moscow to play for Wayne Anderson, and helped the Vandals win the inaugural Big Sky title in 1964 as a sophomore. As a junior, the Vandals were 17–13 and he was 5–3 with a 1.80 ERA and averaged 1.5 strikeouts per inning.

As a senior in 1966, Stoneman was 6–2 with a 0.45 ERA in the regular season, and the Vandals won the Big Sky again with a 31–7 (.816) record in the regular season. Invited to the NCAA playoffs for the first time, Idaho eliminated Colorado State and Air Force on the road in Greeley, Colorado. The Vandals were one step from the College World Series in Omaha, but lost to Arizona in Tucson in the District 7 finals, today's "Super-Regionals" (Sweet 16). Idaho ended up their best-ever season at 34–9 (.791).
