1932 World Series

Bye.Now Dick says, "Afternoon, gentlemen.

It would be handy to have in the cupboard Babe Ruth's jersey from, or the shot jersey from the '32, uh, 1932 World Series." In relation to a lot of the art that I've seen, and we're talking about it, looks like, uh, some of it was painted by two-year-olds," [laughs] says Dick.

Well, yeah.

Picasso and some of those people, it- it ...

Jordan and the Bulls would go on to win the series in six games.

That $14 million price would be the second-biggest known cost for a game-worn jersey, behind the $24.12 million paid in 2024 for a jersey worn by Babe Ruth of the New York Yankees when he hit the, quote, "called shot" home run against the Cubs at Wrigley Field in game three of the 1932 World Series.

I would buy this.

I grew up a Michael Jordan fan.

Yeah.

I would probably pick the 1932 World Series.

Yes, I'm even gonna include the Red Sox.

Yeah, 1932 World Series, Yankees-Cubs in Chicago, uh, the game of the famous Babe Ruth called shot.

Hmm.

All right.

Two men out, nobody on base.

It all happened in the 1932 World Series right here at Wigley Field in Chicago.

Which is high for a ball.

There's been a lot of riding going on in the series because Mark Koenig had been a close friend of Roos on the Yankees and Koenig had been traded to the Cubs and they voted him only a half share.

[laughs] This, this is, this would be a, I mean, unless you're just a sports guru, y- Okay ...

so the, the, the priciest sports jersey ever sold, in 2024, from the 1932 World Series featuring one Babe Ruth.

Babe Ruth.

Ruth.

Wrigley Field, Game 3 of the

1932 World Series.

Here he was in his 19th Major League season.

He'd already hit 650 home runs.
