Dodgers' Aaron Judge troll auction item sells for ridiculously high price

Dodgers players have been lined up to make fun of the Yankees for their epic collapse in Game 5 of the World Series this year. Everyone from Max Muncy to Michael Kopech to Chris Taylor have taken their shots at New York for their carousel of errors in what immediately became an infamous fifth inning of October baseball.

Muncy said the energy in the stadium was "weird," Kopech made fun of all of the mound visits Anthony Rizzo initiated throughout the series, and Taylor was frank: the Yankees "s— down their leg."

They're not the only ones having a laugh, though. This week, the Dodgers dropped an auction on their official site for the Tommy Edman fly ball that Aaron Judge dropped, the moment that everything started to go wrong for the Yankees.

By Thursday morning, bidding on the ball (which started at a base price of $100 on Dec. 2) had reached $18,020. By the time the auction closed on Thursday evening, the winning bidder paid a whopping $43,510 for it, all to make fun of the Yankees. That's dedication.

Aaron Judge's dropped fly ball from World Series Game 5 was sold by the Dodgers at a ludicrous price

As soon as fans caught wind of the auction, the cycle of taking shots at the Yankees reset and started all over again, with some fans calling for the Dodgers to keep the ball and enshrine it at Dodger Stadium.

The Yankees have enjoyed some wins this offseason to try to make up for the embarrassment of their World Series loss. Even though they lost Juan Soto (and Soto has made it very clear that he's leaving the Bronx in his dust), they got Max Fried in free agency and they got Devin Williams in a trade with the Brewers on Friday.

Still, the Dodgers are set to see the Yankees again for a three-game series starting on May 30, and we'd put money on SportsNet LA replaying the highlights (or lowlights, if you're a Yankees fan) incessantly during every pregame show. No one's letting go of that fifth inning for a long time; certainly not that fan who just paid upwards of $43,000 for the fly ball that started it all.
