Sean Denhart lit up the diamond at Seahawk Stadium and the lives of all who knew him
by Rachel Reeves
There’s a #9 on the pitcher’s mound at Seahawk Stadium.
It’s a salute to Sean Denhart, a proud Redondo local who spent some of his most treasured moments there, on that diamond. He died suddenly of heart failure on Dec. 30, two months after the Dodgers won the World Series. He was 32 years old.
When Denhart would drive past the baseball field on Prospect and Vincent with Taylor McBride, his girlfriend of five years, he’d proudly point it out. “Babe,” he’d say, “there’s my office.” She teased him every time, about being in his thirties and reveling in the days of glory, when he was a star pitcher on Redondo Union High School’s varsity team and known in the South Bay for throwing a fastball 94 miles per hour. Her sarcasm was affectionate, as theirs mostly was.
