Aubrey Huff has been a corner infielder most of his career, but he’s also played the corner outfield positions a fair amount. That doesn’t mean he does it well. After right fielder Cody Ross got hurt in spring training, the Giants decided to promote rookie Brandon Belt to the major leagues and put him at first. They moved Huff to right field and he’s endured some struggles out there.
Before Sunday’s game against the Dodgers, teammates Pat Burrell (aka the Machine) and Dan Runzler drew a mock chock outline of Huff’s body in right field making a joke of how he’s dying out there from making sprawling catches, as you can see in the picture above via Andrew Baggarly. Sadly, Huff played to form in the first inning when he misplayed a ball allowing Jamey Carroll an RBI triple. Poor show Aubrey, poor show.
