LOS ANGELES — Sean Burroughs, a two-time Little League World Series champion who won an Olympic gold medal and went on to a major league career that was interrupted by substance abuse, has died. He was 43. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s online records said Burroughs died Thursday, with the cause of death deferred. The Long Beach Fire Department responded to a park shortly after 5 p.m. on a report of a person in full cardiac arrest in the parking lot.
“Sean was a part of one of our most beloved teams, and he represented our country on and off the field in a first-class manner.” Burroughs’ father, Jeff, was a three-time All-Star and the 1974 American League MVP with the Texas Rangers. He coached his son in those Little League World Series appearances. Sean was born in Atlanta when his father played for the Braves.
