Game 6 of the 1977 World Series will go down as one of the single greatest games in Yankees history, all thanks to Reggie Jackson.

Mr. October slugged three home runs that night en route to the franchise’s 21st World Series title.

Now, more than 35 years later, the jersey he wore during that legendary game against the Dodgers will be sold as part of an online auction at the California-based SCP Auctions, running from April 10-27, with proceeds going toward his charity, the Mr. October Foundation for Kids.

“Give someone $100,000 and it changes lives,” Jackson said on Bloomberg Radio’s On the Economy on Thursday.

The auction will also include items from Joe DiMaggio, Thurman Munson, Wayne Gretzky and LeBron James.
