Sunday Spotlight: Sean Fanning
In a cruel twist of fate, Smithtown East had their 2024 and 2025 seasons end via walk-off. By the same team. In the same inning. With the same pitcher on the mound. That pitcher, Sean Fanning, certainly deserved better after compiling a record of 10-0 entering his start on Wednesday at Connetquot. He was a major reason that the Bulls captured the League III title with a record of 15-3 during the regular season.

Final (Game 2): Yeti Baseball 2, LI Titans 0 WP: Sean Fanning (CG, 5 H, 0 R, 8 Ks, 84% strikes) @liboysofsummer pic.twitter.com/vSD4AM6X9d — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) August 13, 2022 It was two distinctly different types of games but both yielded the same result as Yeti Baseball swept a double header from LI Titans Robles this afternoon by the scores of 6-5 (6 innings) and 2-0. Both teams are battling it out in the 15u National standings in the LI Boys of Summer, although today’s results did create some separation.
