Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman ended Game 1 of the 2024 World Series with the first ever walk-off grand slam in World Series history. On Saturday night, the ball he hit sold for $1.56 million at auction, making it the third most expensive game-used baseball of all time.
The Dodgers went on to win the World Series over the New York Yankees in five games, with Freeman earning MVP honors after hitting home runs in each of the first four games of the series and tying the World Series record with a total of 12 RBI.
