William Bentley Inman (born February 6, 1987 in Danville, Virginia) is an American professional baseball pitcher.
Inman is from Danville, Virginia. Prior to playing professionally, he attended Tunstall High School in Dry Fork, Virginia. He received a scholarship to attend Auburn University.
Inman was drafted in the third round of the 2005 amateur draft by the Milwaukee Brewers, beginning his professional career that season. He split the year between the Helena Brewers and AZL Brewers, going a combined 6-0 with a 1.91 ERA in 14 games (five starts). He struck out 59 batters in 47 innings of work. In 2006, he pitched for the West Virginia Power, going 10-2 with a 1.71 ERA in 23 games (20 starts) and striking out 134 batters in 110 2⁄3 innings of work. His 134 strikeouts were the most strikeouts in a single season in West Virginia Power history, until Tyler Glasnow broke his record in 2013.
Before the 2007 season, Baseball America named Inman the 91st best baseball prospect. He began the season in the Brewers organization, playing for the Brevard County Manatees and Huntsville Stars. However, on July 25, he was traded with Joe Thatcher and minor leaguer Steve Garrison for relief pitcher Scott Linebrink. He finished the season with the San Antonio Missions in the Padres system. Overall, he went 8-11 with a 3.28 ERA in 28 games started, striking out 180 batters in 159 1⁄3 innings.
