No. The 1993 film The Sandlot was written by David M. Evans and Robert Gunter. However, anecdotal sources suggest that the director of The Sandlot (David M. Evans) may have been inspired by Stephen King's Stand By Me.

Both movies explore the theme of moving on for most of the characters and focus on the friendship between just two. Some argue that The Sandlot is a lighter version, as it takes the surface qualities of Stand By Me but overlooks the difficult issues that Stand By Me addresses so effectively.
