William G. Wilson (October 28, 1867 – May 9,1924) was a professional baseball player. He played all or part of three seasons in Major League Baseball, primarily as a catcher. He played for the 1890 Pittsburg Alleghenys and 1897–98 Louisville Colonels.
Personal life
After retiring from baseball, Wilson became involved in petty crime, eventually being charged in 1909 with forging postal money orders. On May 9, 1924, Wilson's bloodied body was found in a St Paul, Minnesota ice-cream parlour by police after an anonymous phone call. He had been stabbed ten times. Police believed that Wilson had been murdered over a dispute regarding the distribution of illegal moneys from a crime.
