  • Jeffrey Franklin Kent is a contestant from Survivor: Philippines. A born competitor, Kent immediately targeted returning player Jonathan Penner, saying his time was over, and that a new player should win the game. He exercised strong strategic control of the game throughout the pre-merge phase, even teaming up provisionally with Penner in order to keep tabs on the threat posed by the latter's Hidden Immunity Idol. He returned to targeting Penner after the merge, but lost control of the game with extreme suddenness when Penner won a crucial Immunity Challenge and the Tandang Alliance was spooked by the revelation of Malcolm Freberg's hidden idol, as this confluence of events led to his elimination.
  • Jeff Kent is a former major league baseball player.
  • Jeff Kent played at Cal prior to being drafted in the 20th round of the 1989 amateur draft by the Toronto Blue Jays. He was noted throughout college for his rigorous work ethic and passion for the game, but also for his rifts with the team manager. While attending Cal, he often earned extra cash by working at a local Home Depot. Prior to attending college, Kent had also had a serious run-in with his Edison High School baseball coach; he was then booted off the team as a result.

  • Jeff Kent is a former major league baseball player.
  • Jeff Kent played at Cal prior to being drafted in the 20th round of the 1989 amateur draft by the Toronto Blue Jays. He was noted throughout college for his rigorous work ethic and passion for the game, but also for his rifts with the team manager. While attending Cal, he often earned extra cash by working at a local Home Depot. Prior to attending college, Kent had also had a serious run-in with his Edison High School baseball coach; he was then booted off the team as a result. After four seasons in the minor leagues, Kent was invited to spring training with the Blue Jays in 1992 and made the opening day roster. He made his debut on April 12 against the Baltimore Orioles and recorded his first career hit (a double) in the 6th inning against Jose Mesa. He hit his first home run on April 14 against New York Yankees pitcher Lee Guetterman. He saw limited at-bats early in the season; however, an injury to starting third baseman Kelly Gruber granted Kent a more regular role in the line-up.
