One of the most famous pieces of footwear in baseball history found a new home on Saturday night, when Curt Schilling's bloody sock from Game 2 of the 2004 World Series fetched $92,613 at a live auction in New York, according to the Associated Press.
While the sock from the first game apparently was discarded at Yankee Stadium, Schilling loaned the second to the National Baseball Hall of Fame Museum. He recently decided to sell it after 38 Studios, his Rhode-Island based video game company, went bankrupt.
