Honus Wagner was upstaged early Sunday morning by LeBron James, as a card of the Cleveland Cavaliers star sold for $312,000.The famous 1910 T-206 Wagner card once again established itself as the most valuable card in the world, as it was sold for a record $3.12 million by Goldin Auctions.But it was the price paid for a James card that even went beyond the expectations of Goldin Auctions president Ken Goldin.This shows the worldwide appeal of basketball, of basketball cards, and of LeBron James, Goldin said. My office is going to be buried in emails and phone calls for the next two weeks with people wanting me to sell their LeBron card.An unknown bidder paid an immense sum for a 2003-04 card that was signed by James and contained the NBA logo taken off James jersey from a rookie year photo shoot.At that price, the James card smashes the record for the highest price paid for a single signed card, easily beating a 1933 Goudey Babe Ruth autographed card, which sold for $50,787.Its the third-highest price paid for a basketball card, surpassed only by a 1969 Lew Alcindor Topps rookie, which sold for $501,900, and a 1948 George Mikan rookie, which sold for $403,664.The highest price previously paid for any James item was the $95,000 venture capitalist Bill Lee paid for a 2003-04 card of James from Upper Decks Exquisite Collection, which retailed for $500 a pack.The card that sold Sunday morning was pulled from Upper Decks Ultimate Collection set, which were sold for $125 a pack with only four cards in a pack.The card was sold to a basketball card collector only two months ago for an undisclosed sum. That collector told ESPN.com that he was motivated to buy the card after James won the NBA title. He said Goldin convinced him that he could immediately flip it for a much higher price.The previous record for the Wagner card was $2.8 million. Ryan Dempster Jersey Cubs .

DENVER -- Starting pitchers arent supposed to have stat lines quite like this -- winning ones, anyway. Rookie shortstops arent supposed to make it look this easy for an entire series.Just that kind of weekend for Colorado.Tyler Chatwood allowed one hit over five erratic innings, Trevor Story lined his fourth homer in three games and the Rockies swept the Atlanta Braves with a 7-2 win Sunday.Four-game sweeps are extremely difficult in this league, next to impossible, Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. So thats an accomplishment right there.Chatwood (9-6) finished with an intriguing line: a career-high eight walks, one hit -- Freddie Freemans single in the first -- six strikeouts and no runs. Hes the 16th pitcher in major league history to post that sort of roller-coaster line and go at least five, according to the Rockies.Thats not a normal stat line for a starter, said DJ LeMahieu, whose team captured all four from the Braves after losing two of three to struggling Tampa Bay. He grinded.Just as intriguing was Storys line for the Atlanta series: 7 for 14 with four homers and nine RBI.Nah, thats not normal, either, LeMahieu said. Not for anybody.Nolan Arenado jumpstarted the offense with a three-run homer in the first and LeMahieu added a solo shot in the fourth as the Rockies captured their 10th straight victory over the Braves at Coors Field.Story launched a two-run shot in the fourth a day after breaking the NL rookie record for most homers by a shortstop. He now has 27 this season and moves closer to the major league rookie record for a shortstop. Nomar Garciaparra had 30 with Boston in 1997.Tyrell Jenkins (0-2) surrendered three homers and seven runs in 3 1/3 innings.He was just kind of off, Braves interim manager Brian Snitker said. Didnt have the crispness and the bounce in his step that he had prior.Chatwood walked a batter in every frame and left after throwing 97 pitches, just 51 of them for strikes.Effectively wild, I think they call that, Chatwood said. I thought my stuff was really good today.Normally, if you walk guys, youre going to get hurt here. Anytime you can do that and get away with it, its always nice.Rockies reliever Gonzalez Germen surrendered both runs in the seventh. Freeman had an RBI double and Nick Markakis brought in the other on a grounder.dddddddddddd.Atlanta left 10 runners on base.It seemed like we shouldve been the one running away with the game, really, with all the baserunners we had, Snitker said.This certainly helped set the tone: The Rockies sent 10 batters to the plate as part of a four-run first. Arenado had the big hit with a rare homer to right.Of course, the story of the day was the rookie shortstop. For the weekend, too. All season, for that matter, as Story began by hitting 10 homers in April, tying for most ever by a rookie.I dont like to look back on things right now, Story said. I just put my head down and work every day.TRAINERS ROOMBraves: RHP Julio Teheran threw from 90 feet Sunday and didnt feel pain two days after leaving a game early with tightness in his right lat. He remains hopeful he can make his next scheduled start. We still have to wait, Teheran said. I dont feel any pain and thats a good sign.Rockies: OF Gerardo Parra (sprained left ankle) looks real good, Weiss said, and could head out for a rehab assignment as soon as this week. ... The Rockies are expected to call up 2012 first-round pick David Dahl on Monday, according to a Denver Post report . The outfielder is batting .484 with five homers and 16 RBI for Triple-A Albuquerque. Dahl was limited to 73 games for Double-A New Britain last season after suffering a lacerated spleen in an outfield collision.EMULATING JUNIORIf Carlos Gonzalezs swing looks familiar, its because he modeled it after Ken Griffey Jr., who was inducted into the Hall of Fame on Sunday.Even Gonzalezs bat drop after a homer is borrowed from Griffey.He meant a lot for the game and part of the reason I swing the way I swing is because of him, said Gonzalez, who lives in Windermere, Florida, during the offseason and frequently runs into Griffey. Ive got to thank him.UP NEXTBraves: After Mondays day off, Atlanta plays a two-game series in Minnesota. RHP Lucas Harrell (1-2) goes for the Braves on Tuesday and RHP Ervin Santana (3-8) for the Twins.Rockies: LHP Jorge De La Rosa (6-7) takes the mound Monday to kick off a three-game series in Baltimore. Hes making his second straight interleague start. ' ' '
