All right, so the guy in question was Yogi Berra, and the perfect game in question was thrown by Don Larson in the 1956 World Series. And yes, I know that a catcher plays an important role in a perfect game. But he’s not $564,930 important, is he?
Jersey Of Guy Who Caught Perfect Game Sells For Over Half A Million Dollars
↵I mean, in a weak moment, I might buy the spikes Bo Jackson wore when he ran up the outfield wall to make a catch, because it’s the best moment in the history of sports. I might pay $10 for the jersey Kevin Seitzer wore when he turned around and watched it. Maybe I’d drop $3 on a piece of gum a fan was chewing when he watched it. And I might pay a dollar for a copy of StarTropics that some kid was playing in nearby Prairie Village at the time it happened.
↵Wait! I was that kid! Nevermind!
