Yankee Stadium memorabilia on the block at MSG

Associated Press

NEW YORK — Yankees memories are up for sale this weekend.

Memorabilia associated with the old Yankee Stadium will be on the block at Madison Square Garden — including the ball hit by Yankees backup catcher Jose Molina for the last home run on Sept. 21.

It was caught by Wyoming state legislator Steve Harshman, who decided to sell it. The price is anybody's guess.

Also on the block are historic documents relating to the stadium, including original architectural drawings dating to 1921. And there are hundreds of autographed baseballs — one signed by Mickey Mantle — plus ticket stubs and trophies.

The sale is sponsored by Guernsey's.
