More than 80 years after hitting his final home run, Babe Ruth is still setting records.
A jersey worn by "The Bambino" sometime between 1928 and 1930 was sold at an auction yesterday (Sunday) for $5.64 million -- a new record for sports memorabilia. The jersey had been expected to break the previous record of $4.4 million which was also for a Ruth jersey.
A portion of the proceeds from the auction will benefit various charities. The buyer's name has not been announced. (USA Today)
