Aubrey Huff on his new book and the issues that almost killed him

Aubrey Huff hadn’t reached rock bottom during a succession of losing seasons with the Rays and Orioles. He hadn’t touched down through his drug addiction and divorce proceedings. There was only the clawing that hastens a man’s descent. It wasn’t until Huff retreated to his closet again, dropped to his knees and put a gun to his head that he had truly gotten there. Orioles manager Buck Showalter often punctuates an amusing anecdote by saying, “It will all be in the book one day.” Huff, the former outfielder, first baseman and world-class jokester, is now an author who’s going public with his pain.
