Dodgers Auction Aaron Judge's World Series Error Ball for Over $25,000
The baseball from Aaron Judge's pivotal dropped fly ball in Game 5 is being sold to benefit the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation.
- Aaron Judge's dropped fly ball in the fifth inning of Game 5 of the World Series helped spark a five-run Dodgers rally that led to their championship win over the Yankees.
- The baseball is being auctioned by the Dodgers, with proceeds supporting their charitable foundation, which has invested millions in community programs since its inception.
- As of Thursday, bidding on the ball has surpassed $25,000, with 85 bids made ahead of the auction's scheduled close at 8 p.m. EST.
- The error marked a rare defensive misstep for Judge, who had not committed an error all season, and contributed to the Yankees' collapse after holding a 5-0 lead.
- The auction also includes other memorabilia from the Dodgers' World Series victory, but Judge's error ball has drawn particular interest due to its historical significance.
