Ryan King moved to Los Angeles as a toddler when his father, Commodores co-founder William King, moved here for work. He was a pretty straight arrow through high school earning himself a coveted spot in the highly competive baseball program at Long Beach State. But booze became his way of belonging and soon his undoing as his alcoholo habit compounded a case of the "yips" that kept him from throwing the ball to first base! Things got slowly worse from there, and he skidded along the bottom without ever hitting it until a relapse on his honeymoon changed everything forever.
