Early life

edit

Huff was born in Marion, Ohio, and grew up in Mineral Wells, Texas.[3] In 1983, when he was six years old, his father, Aubrey II, was shot and killed as an innocent bystander in a domestic dispute while working as an electrician. When his mother told him that his father had been killed, Huff later wrote: "I went back to watching The Transformers on television. I remember thinking, ‘He was never here anyway.’"[4] Huff's mother Fonda then raised him and his sister Angela.[5]

Growing up, Huff regularly practiced baseball in his yard, which had a batting cage with lights and a pitching machine. He said, "[My mother bought] it more to keep me out of trouble."[6] He grew up rooting for the Texas Rangers, and frequently attended their games. One of his favorite players was Nolan Ryan.[3] Huff initially attended Mineral Wells High School, but transferred to Brewer High School when his family moved to Fort Worth.[7] While he was selected to the All-District baseball team in high school, he was better known as a basketball player. He graduated in 1995.[8]

College career

edit

Huff attended Vernon College for two years and was named the Most Valuable Player (MVP) of its baseball team in 1996. He transferred to the University of Miami for his final two years of college baseball. As a junior, he tied team single-game records for runs in a game (five against Harvard University on March 28) and most doubles in a game (four on May 16 against Georgia Tech).[9]

As a senior, Huff hit for a .412 batting average, the fourth highest single-season average in school history.[a] His .768 slugging percentage was the second highest in school history. He also hit 21 home runs (fifth in school history) and a school record of 95 runs batted in (RBI). Baseball America, The Sporting News, and the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association named him a first-team All-American.[9]

Huff finished his UM college career with a .400 batting average (second in school history) and a .719 slugging percentage (third in school history). In 2009, he was inducted into the University of Miami Sports Hall of Fame.[9]

2004

In 2004, Huff spent most of the season playing third base.[39] On May 12, he had five RBI, including a three-run home run against Chan Ho Park, in a 9–8 loss against the Texas Rangers.[40] He saw a streak of 398 consecutive games played snapped on August 22 when he was forced to miss a few games with a minor back injury.[41][42] On August 27, he had four hits in an 8–7 loss to the Athletics.[43] He would have four hits again on September 23 in a 7–3 loss to the Yankees.[44]

2006

edit

For 2006, Huff was moved back to third base.[49] He was placed on the disabled list for the first time in his career on April 12 with a sprained left knee suffered in a collision with Nick Green the day before.[50] On May 4, he was activated from the DL.[51] On May 19, he hit his first career walk-off home run against Yusmeiro Petit in a 10-inning, 5–4 win over the Marlins.[52] Through July 9, Huff batted .283 with 65 hits, 15 doubles, eight home runs, and 28 RBI in 63 games.[8]

Huff ranked among the top ten in several career and single-season records in the history of the Tampa Bay Rays (Devil Rays from 1998 to 2007) as of 2019. Through 2019, he ranked fifth in games played (799), at bats (3,028), plate appearances (3,322), hits (870), doubles (172), RBI (449), and batting average (.287). His 128 home runs ranked third (behind Carlos Peña's 163, and Evan Longoria's 261), and his 400 runs scored ranked sixth. He, Longoria and Delmon Young were the only Devil Rays to appear in 162 games in a season. He held Devil Rays' record for hits in a season and doubles in a season, both set in 2003. His batting averages in 2002 and 2003 ranked sixth and seventh, respectively; his home run total in 2003 tied for fifth; and his RBI totals in 2003 and 2004 were fourth and tied for sixth, respectively.[53]

Houston Astros (2006)

edit

On July 12, 2006, the Houston Astros acquired Huff from Tampa Bay for minor leaguers Mitch Talbot and Ben Zobrist.[54] Huff was used at third base for the Astros until August 1, when he was moved to right field following regular third baseman Morgan Ensberg's return from the DL.[49][55][56] In his debut with the Astros on July 13, the first game after the All-Star break, Huff had two hits, including a three-run home run against Randy Messenger in a 5–1 victory over the Marlins.[57] On August 9, he had three hits, two home runs, and six RBI in a 14–1 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates.[58] In 68 games with Houston, Huff batted .250 with 56 hits, 10 doubles, 13 home runs, and 38 RBI.

Baltimore Orioles (2007–2009)

edit

2007

edit

On January 3, 2007, Huff officially signed a three-year, $20 million contract with the Baltimore Orioles.[60] He began the year getting most of the starts at first base, but in mid-May he became the Orioles regular DH as Kevin Millar was moved to first base.[61][62] In a 9–7 loss to the Angels on June 29, he hit for the cycle and got his 1,000th hit and 200th double (both against Kelvim Escobar). He was one of four Orioles to hit for the cycle (along with Brooks Robinson, Cal Ripken Jr., and Félix Pie) and the first player to do so at Oriole Park at Camden Yards.[63][64][65] On August 14, Huff had two hits and five RBI, including a grand slam against Jeff Karstens in a 12–0 victory over the Yankees.[66] In 151 games, Huff batted .280 with 154 hits, 34 doubles, 15 home runs, and 72 RBI.[8]

2008

edit

Before the 2008 season, Huff switched his uniform number from 19 to 17 in honor of his former teammate Joe Kennedy, who died during the offseason.[67] He angered fans in the offseason when he called Baltimore a "horse----" town when compared to Tampa, but he regained fan support by the end of the year by posting one of his best seasons.[68][69] He was the Orioles' designated hitter for most of the season, although he was moved to third base at the end of August following an injury to Melvin Mora.[70][71] On April 8, he had four hits and four RBI in an 8–1 victory over the Rangers.[72] He was named AL Player of the Week from June 30 to July 6 after hitting .345 with three home runs and nine RBIs.[8] He was named the Player of the Week again from August 25–31 after batting .478 with two home runs and seven RBI.[73] In 154 games, Huff batted .304 with 182 hits (tied with Nick Markakis for 10th in the league), 48 doubles (tied with Markakis for third in the league behind Dustin Pedroia's 54 and Brian Roberts's 51), 33 home runs (tied for eighth with Jason Giambi and Josh Hamilton), and 108 RBI (sixth). He also led the American League with 82 extra-base hits.[74] He finished 16th in AL MVP voting and was named "Most Valuable Oriole" by Baltimore sportswriters.[69][75] He won the Silver Slugger Award for DH and the Edgar Martínez Award, becoming the first Oriole to win the award since Tommy Davis in 1974.[76][77]

2009

Detroit Tigers (2009)

edit

On August 17, 2009, Huff cleared waivers and was traded to the Detroit Tigers in exchange for pitching prospect Brett Jacobson.[79] He began his time with the Tigers as the team's DH, but in September he only played against right-handed pitchers as Marcus Thames began playing against left-handed pitchers.[78][80] He hit his first career pinch-hit home run against Jason Frasor on September 14, a game-tying three-run hit in a 10-inning, 6–5 victory over Toronto.[81]

In 40 games with the Tigers, Huff batted .189/.265/.302 with 20 hits, six doubles, two home runs, and 13 RBI.[8] His season totals were a .241 batting average, 129 hits, 30 doubles, 15 home runs, and 85 RBI in 150 games.[8] Following the season, Huff filed for free agency.[82]

San Francisco Giants (2010–2012)

edit

2010

edit

On January 13, 2010, Huff signed a one-year, $3 million contract with the San Francisco Giants.[83] He spent most of the season playing first base for the Giants, although he played left field and right field when Buster Posey played first base from May 29 – June 30 and Travis Ishikawa made most of the starts at first base from July 3 – August 14.[84][85][86] On April 14, Huff hit his first career inside-the-park home run (his first home run with the Giants), a game-winning hit against Charlie Morton in a 6–0 victory over the Pirates.[87] On August 28, he got his 1,500th career hit against Alex Sanabia in a 10-inning, 10–9 victory over the Marlins.[88] In 157 games, Huff batted .290 with 165 hits, 35 doubles, 26 home runs, and 86 RBI while scoring 100 runs (tied for seventh in the league with Brandon Phillips, Martín Prado, and Dan Uggla) for the first time in his career.[8][89] Huff finished seventh in the voting for the NL MVP award.[90]

Huff, in the 11th year of his career, reached the playoffs for the first time as the Giants won the NL West. In Game 4 of the NL Division Series (NLDS) against the Atlanta Braves, he had a ninth-inning, two-out, game-tying RBI single against Mike Dunn in a 3–2 Giants' victory.[91] He batted .267 with four hits and one RBI in the series as the Giants defeated the Braves in four games.[92] He batted .250 with six hits and three RBI in the series as the Giants defeated the Phillies in six games.[92] In Game 4 of the World Series against the Texas Rangers on October 31, he hit a game-winning two-run home run against Tommy Hunter in a 4–0 Giants' victory.[3] He batted .294 with five hits, a home run, and four RBI in the series, winning his first World Series as the Giants defeated the Rangers in five games to win their first World Series in 56 years.[92]

2011

edit
 
Huff with the San Francisco Giants in 2011

Huff filed for free agency after the 2010 season, but on November 23, 2010, he re-signed with the Giants on a two-year, $22 million contract with a club option for 2013.[93] Coming off the team's 2010 World Series success and his new contract, Huff arrived at 2011 spring training out of shape.[94][95] He began 2011 in right field due to an injury to Cody Ross, but he returned to first base when Ross was activated from the disabled list on April 20.[96][97] He drew a pinch-hit, game-winning, bases loaded walk on April 30 against John Lannan in a 2–1 victory over the Washington Nationals.[98] On June 2, his wife's birthday, Huff hit three home runs and drove in a career-high six runs in the Giants' 12–7 win over the St. Louis Cardinals. He said after the game, "[My wife] wanted me to hit her a homer. I hit three. Brownie points."[99] Those home runs accounted for a quarter of his season total, as his overall production dropped from the previous season.[90]

For the season, he batted .246/.306/.370. Compared to 2010, his batting average dropped 44 points, his homers fell from 26 to 12, and his walks went from 83 to 47 as he grew impatient.[94] His On-base plus slugging (OPS) dropped 215 points to .676, last among Major League first baseman in 2011.[90][94][100] Giants' manager Bruce Bochy said, "[Huff's] struggles helped cause our struggles"; the Giants failed to return to the playoffs in 2011.[94][95]

2012

edit

In 2012 spring training, Huff competed with Brandon Belt and Brett Pill for the Giants' first base job.[101] Belt won the job, and Huff opened the season as the Giants' left fielder.[102] On April 21, because the Giants did not have any infielders available, Huff was positioned at second base for the first time in his career in the ninth inning of a tied game against the Mets. He failed to cover second base in a potential double play situation, and the Mets went on to win the first game of the doubleheader 5–4.[103] After the game, on April 25, Huff was placed on the 15-day disabled list with anxiety issues.[104]

He returned from the disabled list on May 7, but was used mainly as a pinch hitter for the rest of the season.[102][105] On June 15, he was placed on the DL with a sprained right knee that he suffered jumping over a dugout railing to celebrate Matt Cain's perfect game.[106] He returned from the DL on July 28 but was placed on it four days later with right knee tendinitis, which kept him out until August 31.[107][108][109]

In 52 games, Huff batted .192/.326/.282 with 15 hits, four doubles, one home run, and seven RBI.[8] In the playoffs, Huff was used exclusively as a pinch hitter. In 10 games, he had one hit in nine at-bats but won his second career World Series as the Giants swept the Tigers in four games.[92][110] On November 1, Huff's $10 million club option was declined, making him a free agent. He instead was paid a $2 million buyout.[111]

Huff hit 242 career home runs, which as of May 16, 2022, ties him for 257th all-time with a number of players.[112] In addition to being used as a designated hitter, he played at five different positions in his career: first base, third base, left field, right field, and second base.[8]

Post-playing career

edit

On January 4, 2014, Huff announced his retirement from baseball and took a position as a baseball color commentator for the Pac-12 Network.[1][2] On March 31, 2014, Huff started co-hosting a morning radio show on Bay Area sports radio station 95.7 The Game with Chris Townsend and Ric Bucher titled Bucher, Towny and Huff.[113] Huff left the show in August 2014.[114]

Huff was an assistant baseball coach at Canyon Crest Academy in San Diego, California in 2015.[115][116] In late 2015, Huff announced he was attempting a comeback three years after playing his final Major League game.[117] In February 2017, he released a book, co-written by Stephen Cassar, entitled Baseball Junkie, in which he opens up about his "battle with anxiety and the pressure of playing in the Major Leagues".[118]

Personal life

edit

On January 27, 2007, Huff married Barbara "Baubi" Heaton. The couple have two sons.[119][120] During Huff's playing days, they resided in Tampa, Florida, in the off-season.[121] Baubi Huff filed for divorce on January 31, 2012. Although the couple briefly reconciled, they eventually divorced and Huff claimed that a woman could only marry him for money.[104][122][123]

Huff has several tattoos. A Transformers fan, he has the logos of the Autobots and Decepticons tattooed on his shoulder blades.[124] On his left shoulder, he also has a tattoo of a guitar with his father's name under it in memory of his father.[5]

Huff said he began taking Adderall in 2009, and was high on it "every game, pretty much" thereafter.[125][126] He said: "I was crushing 20, sometimes 50, 60, almost 100 milligrams daily".[122] He said he was “high as a kite” during the team's 2010 victory parade, as he struggled with the drug, which he views as a performance-enhancing drug.[125] He said he then developed a dependency on alcohol to help him sleep, drinking 12–15 beers after games.[125][4]

During the Giants' 2010 playoff race and postseason, Huff became known for wearing a red "rally thong", which he joked would help the team win.[127] When he was slumping in 2011, fans sent him thongs throughout the season in hopes of improving his performance.[90]

In 2014, Huff says he contemplated suicide as he held a .357 Magnum to his head, with its hammer cocked, "ready to pull the trigger".[4][128]

Politics

edit

Huff has supported the policies of former President Donald Trump,[129] and has made controversial statements considered sexist, transphobic, and violent in nature.[130] In November 2019, a comment Huff posted on Twitter went viral. He stated: "Getting my boys trained up on how to use a gun in the unlikely event @BernieSanders beats @realDonaldTrump in 2020. In which case knowing how to effectively use a gun under socialism will be a must." The tweet was accompanied by a photo of a smiling Huff wearing a pro-Trump T-shirt at a shooting range, holding a used target with many bullet holes in it, and accompanied by two children (presumed to be his sons) whose faces were out of the frame of the picture.[131]

In early January 2020, Huff was criticized after tweeting in response to a comment on the site which talked about invading Iran and kidnapping women from the country. He wrote: "Let's get a flight over and kidnap about 10 each. We can bring them back here as they fan us and feed us grapes, amongst other things."[132][133] Huff later claimed the tweets were satirical, and continued to post similar tweets.[134]

In mid-January 2020, when the Giants promoted Alyssa Nakken to be an assistant coach, making her the first full-time female assistant coach in the history of MLB, Huff tweeted: "I got in trouble for wearing a thong in my own clubhouse when female reporters were present. Can't imagine how it will play out with a full time female coach running around. This has #metoo & #BelieveAllWomen written all over it. Only in ⁦@SFGiants."[135] And then: "Couldn't imagine taking baseball instruction from an ex female softball player. Have fun with that @bcraw35 @bbelt9 @BusterPosey."[136]

His behavior eventually prompted the Giants to ban Huff from a 2020 ceremony honoring their 2010 World Series championship.[137] The team wrote that its reason was: "Aubrey has made multiple comments on social media that are unacceptable and run counter to the values of our organization."[138] Huff claimed that he was banned because of his support for President Trump saying "If you look at my Twitter account, I'd say about 75 percent of my support [is for] President Trump. So, yeah, absolutely. I have every reason to believe in my heart of hearts it was all about President Trump."[139]

In June 2020, Huff criticized people who wear masks to avoid spreading the COVID-19 virus, saying "If you want to wear a mask and live in fear for the rest of your lives, that's certainly your prerogative. But the vast majority of well-adjusted, sane, common sense people that aren't sheep and can reason for themselves agree with me. I understand that coronavirus is real. If you have pre-existing conditions, or you're an old person or—and this is going to sound insensitive, but someone has to say it—you're morbidly obese, then stay the fuck home. Just because that is your plight in life, doesn't mean the whole world has to shut down. If I God forbid get the coronavirus, here's what I do: I go home, I get well and I get back and live my life. I would rather die from coronavirus than live the rest of my life in fear and wear a mask."[140]

Huff has stated that he is not anti-vaccination, rather "anti you telling me I need to get vaxxed."[141] However, his other social media posts and his Twitter bio state that he is an anti-vaxxer.

On August 9, 2021, his Twitter account was permanently suspended, or banned,[142] for what was called "spreading COVID misinformation."[143] On December 16, 2022, Huff's Twitter account was reinstated.[144]

In 2022, Huff ran for the school board in the Solana Beach school district and lost to his opponent, incumbent candidate Debra Schade, garnering just 17.5% of the vote to Schade's 82.5%.[145]
