Update: Joc Pederson's 1994 car with 167,000 miles has sold!

Update: For all of you Joc Pederson fans who were hoping to get your hands on his 20-year-old car, I'm sorry to burst your bubble: the car has sold. Though the auction ended without a buyer, after reading our article, Scotty Bryden got in touch with the seller and purchased the vehicle for $1,200. 

Said Bryden, a Red Sox fan who owns two car dealerships, Bryden Ford in Durand, Ill., and Bryden Motors in Beloit, Wis., "It was a piece of memorabilia that probably doesn't come along for a lot of people." It was also a way for him to connect with his son, a baseball player with the 2014 Division III champion, University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. The two play fantasy baseball together and since his son is a center fielder, Bryden said he is a "little biased" towards good outfielders. 

For those wondering why someone would pay $1,200 for a car with 167,000 miles on it, Bryden pointed out that it actually cost less than many game-used jerseys. He asked, "Which would you rather have: a car and two autographs or a jersey that some guy wore and stunk up a little bit?" 

Original Story: Ever wanted to own a piece of baseball history? Well, now is your chance.

At the end of Joc Pederson's season in which the 22-year-old hit .303/.435/.582 with 33 HR and 32 steals, the Albuquerque Isotopes raffled off the top prospect's 1994 Buick Century. With Pederson getting called up by the Dodgers the next day, it was a good time to do it. Chances are he doesn't need a car with 167,000 miles on it any longer. 

But now, for only $1,200, you can own this unique piece of baseball history. At least, as long as you can pick it up in the Albuquerque area. 

According to the seller, Patrick Volpert, a lifelong Albuquerque Dukes and then Isotopes fan, purchased the car for only $500 after finding the raffle winner still in the parking lot after the game. Turns out, it was a bit of a steal as Pederson had left behind "all sorts of water bottles in there. I think he even left me 89 cents." 

But Volpert wasn't looking to turn a quick profit on the car. After all, it's a "pretty crazy little car." Though there's no air conditioning and only one working window, he says that it drives "really, really smooth." He also said that he probably "wouldn't have done it with anybody else," adding that he remembers seeing Pederson taking time to sign plenty of autographs. "While some players would just walk on by kids, he would stay there for quite a bit. So that impressed me." 

With only a day left in the auction, Volpert isn't nervous if the car doesn't sell. Volpert said he will continue driving it despite the "odd looks" he gets at stoplights. And "maybe Joc Pederson will have a huge breakout year, maybe be Rookie of the Year next year and maybe [I'll] paint it Dodger blue."

Unfortunately, even that may not be enough to impress Volpert's two sons: "They were amazed that I got it, but they said that it wasn't cool enough for them to drive."
