Updating a previous entry, I learned what became of the David Ortiz jersey that was unearthed from the site of the new Yankee Stadium. It was auctioned off on ebay for the exorbitant sum of $175, 000. I thought… way too much until I learned where the proceeds would be going. There is an organization […]
