Huhn began his minor league career in 1910, playing for the Richmond Pioneers and Shelbyville Grays, hitting .200 in 16 games.
In 560 at-bats, he collected 128 hits - 22 of which were doubles, five of which were triples and one of which was a home run - and he stole 14 bases as well.
On September 5, 1925, after a minor league game, Huhn drove six of his players back to Augusta in a large touring car.
A second touring car followed a few minutes behind with team president J. Marvin Wolfe and the remaining players.
When Huhn's vehicle was about 14 miles from Camden, South Carolina, it entered a “blind” curve in the road and went out of control, overturning and landing in a deep ditch.
