Ortiz Boston Tribute jersey on MLB auctions over 35K.

[emann]

Anybody know what is the record amount is for MLB Auctions? The Ortiz tribute jersey from the game on 4/20 is over $35,000... Obviously these are all being fueled by donations to the One Fund, but it's still pretty cool to watch.

The patches were stickers for that game, not everyone appeared to have them on the entire time. Napoil's fell off at some point and then he put another on...

$ 37,400.00 final bid on Ortiz with the Pedroia at 17K, Buchholz at 16K, Lester at 14K, Ellsbury at 11K, and Salty at 10K.

Thanks for the explanation; that makes sense.
