Just hours after Tigers manager Brad Ausmus lost his mind on the field Monday night arguing balls and strikes, the hat and hoodie he abandoned hit the auction block.
As of Thursday morning the highest bid topped $1,500 for the cap and hoodie that retail on the Tigers’ website for $34.99 and $89.99, respectively.
According to the auction site, “Ausmus donated the items directly to the Detroit Tigers Foundation with the goal of raising money for youth baseball in Detroit. Proceeds from this auction will directly benefit the Tiny Tigers T-ball program funded by the Detroit Tigers Foundation at Detroit PAL. Neither item has been washed since the May 16 game and both items show dirt consistent with being placed or tossed on the field.”
