Offered is the ring given to Steve Sax to commemorate his 1982 Caribbean Series Championship in the Venezuelan Winter League. The face of the ring reads "LEONES DEL CARACAS" above and below a C interlocked with a lion's head. On one shank is "TRICAMPEONES DE VENEZUELA 1979-80, 1980-81, and 1981-82." On the other shank, "CAMPEONES DEL CARIBE MEXICO 1982." This must be a super rare ring as we were unable to find one that has ever sold before. The Leones have traditionally been one of the most dominant pro clubs in Venezuela. Includes LOA from Sax.
A portion of the auction proceeds from all items sold in the Steve Sax Collection will benefit the foundation named for Steve’s son, John, who was one of five U.S. Marines killed in a training flight accident in June 2022 in the California desert. The Capt. John J. Sax Foundation “serves to support those who choose to further their education, exploration and passion for flight."
