Second baseman Jeff Kent put up numbers that should have placed him on the cusp of the Hall of Fame, but his abrasive personality often overshadowed his accomplishments. He had a famously testy relationship with teammate Barry Bonds while both played for the Giants, and the two became embroiled in a heated dugout confrontation in 2002 during a nationally-televised game.
Kent wasn’t any nicer to members of the media, and frequently appeared indifferent or downright hostile during post-game interviews.
