“Winners will be notified after the auction ends and once all bids have been processed to determine the winner for each lot”
Memorable and scarce ticket stub from the very first game of Baseball Hall of Famer Cal Ripken’s legendary 2,632 game streak. The game played on 30 May 1982 was between the Toronto Blue Jays and the Baltimore Orioles at Memorial Stadium in Baltimore. Cal Ripken’s record of 2,632 straight games for the Baltimore Orioles still holds in Major League Baseball and spanned over seventeen seasons, from 30 May 1982 to 20 September 20 1998. Many deemed New York Yankee Lou Gehrig's record unbreakable until Ripken's 2,131st game, which fans later voted ''Most Memorable Moment'' in Major League Baseball history. Ticket numbered 154, features a Blue Jays logo in red and original ticket price of $4.25. Ticket stub measures approximately 3.5'' x 2'' in fine condition.
