My son was 2 years behind Sean, he played at Los Altos LL. We followed every game of the '92 & '93 LLWS, watched him play at Whaley Park Pony League and my son faced him in a high school game. Followed his professional career for many years.
Was devastated to hear of your passing, the Baseball World got a new Angel
