A brief LA Times article today about Charlie with photo of him in his SaMo High Uni.
Charlie Sheen was an adaptable, even-tempered and not easily rattled figure — just the qualities you'd want in a relief pitcher. …
That, at least, is the recollection of Jose Lopez, the Santa Monica High varsity baseball coach in 1983. …
Lopez says that Sheen, then known as Charlie Estevez, was his bullpen ace, foreshadowing the actor's unforgettable role as reliever Rick "Wild Thing" Vaughn in the 1989 film "Major League." …
"He was very, very efficient," notes Lopez, describing the senior as "an outstanding athlete" and, "with me, a model kid."
I am too lazy to photobucket the photo but it's there.

Maybe he was in 'The Pen" in Major League for more than just 'auto theft.'
