Micky Mantle’s 1964 World Series jersey auctioned for $1.3 million

A Mickey Mantle jersey from the 1964 World Series has been sold at auction for $1.32 million.

It was the jersey Mantle wore when he homered in Games 6 and 7 at St. Louis to give him 18 for his career, a World Series record that still stands. He also homered in Game 3 at home to break a tie with Babe Ruth.

The winning bid shattered the previous mark for a Mantle jersey — $486,000 last year for a road jersey from his final season in 1968. A Ruth jersey from 1920 has the record at $4.
