Fehlandt A. Lentini (born August 12, 1977 in Santa Rosa, California) is a former American professional baseball player who last played as an outfielder with the Long Island Ducks. Lentini, an outfielder, has played with many different minor and independent league teams over his career, which began in 2001 with the Martinsville Astros of the rookie-level Appalachian League. He attended Sonoma State University and from there, was signed by the Houston Astros as an amateur free agent. In the Astros organization, he played with six different teams from 2001 to 2003. During the 2004 season, Lentini began his tenure in the independent league circuit, signing with the Kalamazoo Kings of the Frontier League. That season, was named a league all-star.

From 2006 to 2008, Lentini was selected to play in the Northern League All-Star Game as a member of the Winnipeg Goldeyes. After joining the Golden Baseball League in 2009, he was chosen to play in the season's all-star game. Also in 2009 Lentini, as a member of the Calgary Vipers, was named the Golden Baseball League's Player of the Week for June 1 to 7. The Vipers won the league championship that season. In October 2010, his alma mater, Sonoma State University, will induct him into the Sonoma State Athletic Hall of Fame.

While attending Napa Valley College, Lentini was selected in the 41^st round of the 1996 Major League Baseball draft by the Texas Rangers, but did not sign. He was one of ten students of Napa Valley College to be selected in the history of the Major League Baseball Draft. Lentini then transferred to Sonoma State University. During his first season at Sonoma State in 1998, Lentini batted .309 with 15 stolen bases. He did not attend the school in 1999 and 2000, returning for the 2001 season, compiling a .427 batting average with 117 hits, 23 doubles, 10 triples and 89 runs. All of those numbers stand as a single-season Sonoma State records. The Napa Valley Register described his 2001 campaign with Sonoma State as "perhaps the greatest single season in school history". Lentini was awarded first-team All-American honors in 2001, as well as being named West Region and California Collegiate Athletic Association Player of the Year. In 2010, it was announced that Lentini will be inducted into the Sonoma State Athletic Hall of Fame on October 2.
