Ohtani's 50th Home Run Ball Sells for Record $4.392 Million Amid Ownership Dispute
Oct 23, 2024, 05:19 AM
Shohei Ohtani's 50th home run ball has been sold at auction on October 23, 2024, for a record-breaking $4.392 million, making it the most expensive ball in sports history. The ball, which marked Ohtani's entry into the exclusive 50-50 club for hitting 50 home runs and stealing 50 bases in a single season, surpassed the previous record of $3 million paid for Mark McGwire's 70th home run ball. The auction, conducted by Goldin Auctions, saw the final bid more than double Ohtani's $2 million salary with the Los Angeles Dodgers. The ball's ownership is currently under dispute, with at least three individuals claiming rights, leading to ongoing legal proceedings.
