Marty York: The "Sandlot" kid grows up into a bodybuilding man's man, with gay roles, Mario Lopez, and some c*cks

In Abbott Elementary Episode 5.4 (2025), wacky grade school teacher Jacob and his boyfriend (Chris Perfetti, Jabouki Young-White) head out to a game night hosted by button-down colleague Gregory (Tyler James Williams of Everybody Hates Chris, left).

The rest of the gang head to the DMV for a day of endless lines, surly staff, and nitpicking, constantly changing requirements: "You need Form 3934-B, which states that you had insurance at 7:00 pm two weeks ago.  This is Form 3934-C, which is about having insurance six days ago.  And you forgot the letter from your third grade teacher.  But don't worry about it: I'm about to go on break, and the next clerk will make up something else."



Melissa gets upset when people with numbers higher than hers get called up, and when huge bodybuilder Fabrizio (Marty York) has the same number.  She loudly accuses him of being anti-Italian, and upon hearing that he is himself Italian, accuses him of being anti-woman.

The last time I researched a bodybuilder with a walk-on role, on Young Sherlock Holmes, I hit pay dirt: Adam Basil turned out to be gay, with gay characters and nude photos.  Maybe lightning will strike again with Marty York.

Turns out that Marty is famous for The Sandlot (1993), a movie about a ragtag band of misfit and minority kids who start a baseball team (in 1962, so Babe Ruth stops by).   I've never seen it -- who wants to watch kids playing sports? -- but apparently it was very popular, and propelled the cast into teen idol stardom:

The Sandlot was 13-year old Marty's first acting job.  He went on to play:




An inner-city kid being treated to Thanksgiving Dinner on Saved by the Bell: The College Years (1993). Where he got to hang out with Mark-Paul Goselaar and Mario Lopez, sigh.

Larry, who competed with Corey for Shaun Hunter's affection, on Boy Meets World (1993).  Sounds like a queer code.

A bully who is bested by the adolescent Quinn (Philip Van Dyke) on Sliders (1994).  Where he got to hang out with the grown-up Quinn, Jerry O'Connell, sigh.

In adulthood the roles become more sporadic. Guest spots on The Eric Andre Show,  SMILF, and Abbot Elementary, plus a few shorts.

In The Brothers Sinclair (2011), two gay brothers (Mike Manning, Steven Helmkamp) inherit their uncle's business, a private men's gym.  They are expecting a gay sauna, but it turns out that all of the members are straight, and it's run by the Mob.  But all three members of the Calypso gang, including Guido (Marty), are gay, so it all works out. 

It was actually intended to be a promotional film for a full-length movie that never got made.


In Super Bois (2021) aspiring filmmaker Jon (Jon Mancinetti) is visited by his brother Joel (Alec Stitick), who is on the autism spectrum, and convinces him to make his own superhero movie.  Jon Mancinetti is gay in real life, and probably playing his character as gay.  

Marty plays an action-adventure hero in a movie that he s directing.

Several gay and gay-adjacent roles.  A promising start.  Now let's check out the bodybuilder's personal life.



Marty is definitely a man's man, hugging guys in pairs or groups.  But they're usually engaged in hetero-coded "man's man" activities, like drinking beer and going to ball games.











He also engages in some "man's man" activities of his own: golfing, looking at cars, playing with his dogs, and working out.












He even lifts weights as Santa Claus.

Plus there are a few photos of Marty showing off the bosom of his lady friend.  I'm going to go with straight, or maybe bi.

Searching for n*de photos proved to be problematic: the n*de celebrity sites all thought that I was  looking for photos of the 13-year old Matty in The Sandlot.  So I posted some random muscleman c*cks on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends.
