Manager Biography - Jason Kent
League
Kent joined the league in 1994 and has remained the skipper of the Pacific Coast Sock Exchange ever since. During that campaign, Kent became the only manager (other than the first season of the league) to win a division title in his first season as the Giants won an impressive 98 games. However, from that point, the Giants enjoyed little success until the '98 season. A first round loss in 1994 was met with dismal seasons in 1995-96. However, things brightened in '98 as the Giants shocked the critics and slipped into the playoffs. Once there, the Giants were determined to stay awhile. And stay they did. The Giants denied the heavily favored Cubs a trip to the title series by completing an amazing 3 games to 1 comeback on the strength of pitcher Kevin Brown (who would lead the Padres to the title in '00). However, the Cinderella story ended as the Mets won their first ring, themselves coming back from a 3-2 series deficit.
Kent became the league's third commissioner in 1999; however, the league was forced to suspend operations that summer. Ballentine replaced Kent in 2000. Last season was another successful foray for the Baymen as they held off the hard charging Padres, winning the West division. However, the Giants fell victim to sweet revenge as the Cubs upended Kent's drive for a first championship victory in round two.
Personal
Kent was raised in Phoenix, Arizona. He lived in Montgomery, Alabama for four years before moving to Miami, Florida, where he currently resides. Kent works as a plant agent and is married to his wife, Roseanna. The couple is expecting their first child sometime in May.
