Jeff Kent’s number 21 was officially retired by the Giants in a star-studded ceremony between doubleheader games, honoring his legendary career that included 377 home runs — the most ever for a second baseman — and his MVP season in 2000. A beloved Giant for six of his 17 MLB seasons, Kent also won three Silver Slugger awards and made three All-Star teams while suiting up for multiple teams including the Blue Jays, Mets, Astros, and Dodgers. The emotional event featured Giants legends like Dusty Baker and Barry Bonds, and ended with Kent throwing out the ceremonial first pitch to his dad — a fitting tribute to a true baseball icon.
