Baltimore Orioles Statement on the Passing of Wild Bill Hagy
08/20/2007 -- The Baltimore Orioles organization is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of "Wild Bill" Hagy. While leading cheers from "The Roar from 34" at Memorial Stadium, Wild Bill became a Baltimore institution. He was one of the great characters of the Baltimore sports landscape and was a true die-hard Orioles fan, supporting the club year in and year out. He will be missed by everyone who knew him and by everyone for whom he led the "O-R-I-O-L-E-S" cheer. All of us in the Orioles organization extend our sincere condolences to his family and friends.
A moment of silence will be held in his memory before tonight's Baltimore Orioles - Texas Rangers game. William G. Hagy was 68 years old.
