Lot 1394: Al Gionfriddo's Famous Catch Lot with World Series Ticket Stub (2)
ITEM DESCRIPTION
|
||||||||||||
The Dodgers led the Yankees 8-5 going into the bottom of the 6th inning of game 6 of the 1947 World Series when Gionfriddo was brought in as a defensive replacement. Two men were on base when DiMaggio drove the ball to the 415 marker. Gionfriddo raced across the field and reached over the fence to catch the ball. In one of the most famous images in baseball history the taciturn DiMaggio shook his head and kicked at the dirt in frustration. This lot contains a PSA certified Yankee ticket stub to that game as well as an encapsulated and PSA/DNA certified GEM MT 10 Gionfriddo autographed photo of the catch.
