Ruth's New York Yankees jersey, which he wore between 1928 and 1930, sold for $5.64 million at Hunt Auctions. Hunt said it partnered with Ruth's family as well as "elite third-party collectors" to source the jersey, which was on display, along with a collection of artifacts from the Sultan of Swat. The sale price of the jersey has made it the most expensive sports memorabilia item of all time.
