The Boston Red Sox orchestrated one of the most historic postseason runs in MLB history back in 2004. Somehow, a piece of that history was in the hands of an alleged drug dealer.

The Quincy Police Department conducted a drug raid on a home in south Boston and discovered the alleged dealer was in possession of a 2004 Red Sox World Series ring belonging to an employee (not a player or coach) of the organization, according to CBS Boston and The Associated Press.

The department's Drug Control Unit obtained a warrant to conduct the raid after witnessing a drug deal. They had been watching the house for several months. Capt. John Dougan said the operation uncovered a "significant" number of oxycodone pills, money-counting machines, police scanners and $9,000 in cash, in addition to the ring.

"I don't know how this gentleman got possession of this ring but it was a little bit of a shock for our drug unit to find an actual Red Sox World Series ring," Dougan added.

"Suspects Dennis Leclair and James White, of Quincy, and George Green, of Dorchester all face drug charges and are due to be arraigned Tuesday in Quincy District Court," CBS Boston noted.

"Leclair was charged with drug distribution, drug possession and receiving stolen property, among other charges. White was charged with drug distribution and possession; Green was charged with drug possession," according to MyFoxBoston.com.

It's unknown who the ring belongs to, but it'll be interesting to see if anybody comes forward to claim it.

Back in 2007 the Boston Globe reported a 2004 Red Sox World Series ring was auctioned off for $15,655.55 on eBay. The man who sold the ring - former MLB scout Cucho Rodriguez - did so to give himself "security" if he fell ill.

During their run in 2004, the Red Sox swept the Anaheim Angels in the ALDS, became the first team to overcome a 3-0 deficit in a playoff series against the New York Yankees in the ALCS, and swept the St. Louis Cardinals in the World Series.
