For months, Yankee fans have been fascinated by a star-studded gavel necklace worn by Yankees captain Aaron Judge all season in a nod to his All Rise Foundation.

Judge, being ever humble, refused to comment on the necklace, only saying that it was a gift. A new report by the New York Post added some fascinating context towards who got Judge the gift, and how much it cost.

Machado confirmed that Judge was given the gift by veteran Giancarlo Stanton, who dropped $20,000 on the charm. The sparkling necklace is set in 14-carat white gold with more than 12 carats in VVS-graded diamonds, along with three brands of amethysts.

The chain also has some unique personal details, including an inscription of the name and birth date of Judge's first daughter Nora, who he and wife Samantha welcomed into the world in late January. Also inscripted is 'Sam' short for his wife Samantha, '2x', a nod to Judge's two MVP awards, and the names of his two dogs, Gus and Penny. Stanton has come to Machado often - more specifically during his time with the Marlins from 2010-2017, and teammate Jazz Chisholm Jr has also been a frequent client.
