At last Saturday’s Goldin Auctions, they offered baseball legend Jackie Robinson’s All-Star Game bat, and it sold for $1 million. The bat came directly from Rachel Robinson, Jackie Robinson’s widow.

While it is rare for a baseball bat to fetch more than $1 million, the sale was not a record. Instead, the record belongs to the bat Babe Ruth used to hit his first home run for the Yankees, which sold for $1.2 million. The single most expensive piece of Jackie Robinson memorabilia is a game-worn Brooklyn Dodgers Jersey. His famous number 42 Jersey sold for more than $4.2 million last year.

COLLEGE

Three Texas A&M University-Commerce women’s golf team members are in the top 12 after Monday’s round at the NCAA West Regional Championships. The Lions sat in second place at the Brookside Country Club and carded a team score of 293 to finish second place in the first round. A&M-Commerce is four strokes back of Texas A&M International and a stroke ahead of DBU in third.

Monday, NTCC won the opener, 9-6, but the nightcap went to Kilgore College’s softball team 17-3.

HIGH SCHOOL
