SCORE stands for Sharing Christ through Outreaches, Resources, and Encouragement. Jeff has served as the Baseball Chapel Leader to the Detroit Tigers since 1991.

The annual HOME PLATE outreach event has hosted over 100,000 people at Comerica Park and minor league ballparks in Michigan and Ohio. Several thousand decisions for Christ have been made at these events.
