The Memphis Tigers baseball organization has lost a friend and founder. 
Chairman Emeritus and long time Tiger coach Keith Hagan passed away on April 6, 2009 after a long and courageous battle with cancer. Heaven has ordered a kelly green pinstripe uniform to fit the small-statured patriarch of the East Memphis Boys Athletic Association.  Though diminutive in size, Keith’s life has left a giant footprint on youth baseball in Memphis and the Mid-South. His kindness and generosity will never be forgotten and his legacy will live forever. 
 
 

Keith requested that in lieu of flowers friends could donate to his 18 year old Tiger Team.  Details forthcoming.


At his request, Coach Hagan will be buried in his #21 Memphis Tiger uniform.
