Overcoming an abusive father and a near fatal shooting, he becomes a New York Yankee star winning a World Series his rookie year. But the lure of fame was too much of a temptation for his inner demons and Joe was dragged so far down, he hit rock bottom. Striking out at every turn, Joe threw it all away on drugs, women and wise guys.
