Steve Garvey, the Republican Senate candidate in California, struggled to pay his taxes following his Major League Baseball career while serving as an entrepreneur and pitchman for alternative health remedies.
Garvey and his businesses were named in more than 40 tax liens, federal and state, totaling about $3.85 million over the last four decades, according to documents at recorders offices, largely in Los Angeles and Riverside counties.
A Garvey campaign spokesperson said he is working to pay off the debt when approached by POLITICO about the outstanding liens.

Adam Schiff, the heavy favorite to win a full Senate term following the death last year of Dianne Feinstein.
