Derek Lowe's World Series ring stolen
FORT MYERS, Fla. -- Authorities in southwest Florida say somebody stole a World Series ring and trophy belonging to major league pitcher Derek Lowe.
The Lee County Sheriff's Office said Monday that Lowe's 2004 Boston Red Sox World Series ring was taken from his Fort Myers home.
A housekeeper told investigators that a gold trophy, necklaces, and women's shoes and purses were also stolen sometime between Apr. 16 and Apr. 18. The total value of the items taken was about $90,000.
An incident report said the ring is 18-karat white gold with rubies and diamonds, and is inscribed with Lowe's name and jersey number, 32.
Lowe, who also used to play for the Atlanta Braves, currently pitches for the Cleveland Indians.
