We were contacted by Elaine Sturdivant, widow of New York Yankees pitcher Tom Sturdivant, who pitched for the Pinstripes from 1955 – 1959 and ended his career with cross town Mets in 1964. His only World Series championship was in 1956 with the Yanks. He died in 2009. Mrs. Sturdivant wanted to sell Tom’s ring in our World Series ring auction, and the gem realized almost $20,000.
