Dubai Baseball Standouts Join Arabia Wolves RosterDubai, UAE — (September 29, 2025) — Baseball United, the first-ever professional baseball league focused on the Middle East and South Asia, announced today the signing of two familiar faces from the Dubai baseball scene to the Arabia Wolves roster for its inaugural season.
Shortstop Chris Beyers, who’s been a fixture in Dubai’s Men’s League for several years, and pitcher, Sean Fekete, who starred at Dubai Little League while attending the American School of Dubai (ASD), both will take the field this November for the Wolves. The Wolves – Dubai’s new professional baseball team – will play all their games at Baseball United Ballpark at The Sevens sports and entertainment complex. Beyers starred for the Dhahran’s (Saudi Arabia) Little League team that made it to the Little League World Series in 2007 and 2008. He’s played professionally in Germany and also represented his native South Africa in international baseball tournaments. He was the final player selected to play in the Baseball United All-Star Showcase in November 2023 in Dubai, and he also competed in the Baseball United UAE Series in February of this year. Fekete, who lived in Dubai for seven years, played Division I college baseball in the United States at Oakland University, and also played for the Hungarian National Baseball Team.
He also played for the Wolves during the Baseball United UAE Series earlier this year. Both Beyers and Fekete played for the UAE National Baseball Team, which was constructed by Baseball United and competed in the Arab Classic Tournament in November 2024. The addition of these two players on the Wolves roster is a significant milestone for baseball in Dubai and across the GCC, providing inspiration for young players across the region. Dubai Little League, founded in 1996, has more than 500 families associated with its baseball and softball program. There are additional youth leagues in Abu Dhabi, as well as in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, and Oman.
“We are proud to have two players on the Wolves’ roster who have called Dubai home for many years,” said Kash Shaikh, Chairman, CEO, and Co-Founder, Baseball United. “These guys grew up competing on the fields just a few minutes outside of downtown, and now they’ll be suiting up as professionals in our league’s inaugural season in front of their families, friends, and community. I’m very happy for Chris and Sean, and I know their stories will inspire the next generation of great players right here in Dubai.” The Arabia Wolves are one of Baseball United’s four founding franchises, alongside the Mumbai Cobras, Karachi Monarchs, and Mid East Falcons. The Wolves roster includes a mix of international veterans, regional talents, and young prospects. Baseball United’s inaugural season will begin on November 14, 2025, in Dubai, with 21 games scheduled over four weeks. The Wolves – Dubai’s home team – will play their first game on Tuesday, November 18th, against the Cobras, and a total of nine games during the regular season. The season will conclude with the United Series — a best-of-three championship series between the top two teams — held December 12–14 at Baseball United Ballpark.
All Baseball United games will air locally and internationally, with official broadcast partners to be announced in October. The full Wolves roster and schedule can be viewed at baseballunited.com.
