In case you haven’t heard, Baltimore Orioles manager Buck Showalter didn’t put in star closer Zach Britton during their American League Wild Card Game loss to the Toronto Blue Jays.
It has been a running joke for social media throughout the Major League Baseball postseason now, but the Orioles accidentally added to it recently on their auction website. The O’s are auctioning off player jerseys from that game, and you’ll see why Britton’s is a little funny.

And the best part is Britton got a kick out of it himself.

Britton’s jersey was by far the hottest commodity, too, as the highest bid was over $2,000 as of Saturday afternoon.
