}}

William Wirt Connelly (June 29, 1925 – November 27, 1980) was an American professional baseball player. A right-handed pitcher, his pro career extended from 1945 to 1957, with appearances in Major League Baseball in 1945, 1950, and 1952–53. He batted left-handed, stood {{convert|6|ft}} tall and weighed {{convert|175|lb}}. The native of Alberta, Virginia, attended Hampden–Sydney College.

Connelly had a 6–2 record with a 6.92 earned-run average in the Majors with four different teams: the Philadelphia Athletics, Chicago White Sox, Detroit Tigers and New York Giants. Purchased by the Giants from the Triple-A American Association in August 1952, he won all five of his decisions during the last six weeks of the season, helping New York finish second in the National League. In 25 career games (including seven starting assignments) and 66{{frac|1|3}} innings pitched, he allowed 71 hits and 53 bases on balls, striking out 34. He had no complete games, shutouts or saves. His biggest weakness was control; Connelly issued 7.23 walks per nine innings. This, presumably, is what earned him the nickname Wild Bill.

As a batsman, he holds the career record for most extra-base hits with no singles, with four. He collected two doubles and two triples in 22 plate appearances, batting .219 with four runs batted in.
