A significant moment from the 2024 World Series saw a ball from Aaron Judge's dropped catch sell for $43,510 at a Major League Baseball auction. This occurred during Game 5, where the New York Yankees initially led 5-0 against the Los Angeles Dodgers before Judge's error allowed the Dodgers to rally back.

Despite Judge's early two-run homer, the Yankees could not maintain their lead, ultimately losing the game and the series. Judge's defensive mistake has sparked further discussion about his postseason performance, despite being named AL MVP for the regular season.
