Steven Patrick Kent (born October 3,1978) is an American former Major League Baseball pitcher.
Kent was born in Frankfurt to a United States military family and spent much of his young life moving around,a lifestyle he said prepared him for the itinerant life of a professional baseball player.

Before his first semester at Florida International,he was involved in fatal car accident which resulted in him receiving 55 stitches and cosmetic surgery and missing several months of practice before the start of the season. However,when he returned to play,he found his fastball velocity had increased dramatically. [1]
