San Diego Native and a talented middle infielder for the San Diego Stars. Jeff Cook, (Jeffrey S Cook) Born April 17th, 1963. Played middle infield for the San Diego,California Stars from 1981-1984. Not affiliated with a Major League team until 1985, the Stars later became a feeder system for college and professional teams.

Before playing for the Stars Jeff was a High School standout in the San Diego regional area and was voted High School Baseball player of the year in 1980 and helped lead his team to back to back CIF appearances. Jeff went on to play for the new ABC league which was a single-A affiliate of the California Angels. The American Baseball Committee was around for a few years until they lost their affiliation. Once the financial support was gone the promising ABC league lost its momentum and became a non affiliated local league that supported balls players considered to be past their prime, or out of opportunities.

Jeff also had brief appearances with the Santa Maria Indians and Lake Elsinore. Both teams are in the California farm system.

More alumni information will be available on the San Diego Stars website.
