You could buy a baseball associated with greatness: the ball Shohei Ohtani hit for the 50th home run of his unprecedented 50-50 season, or the ball Freddie Freeman hit for the first walk-off grand slam in postseason history.
Or you could buy a baseball associated with failure: the ball two-time most valuable player Aaron Judge dropped in the fateful fifth inning, on the night the Dodgers clinched the World Series championship.
The Ohtani ball sold for $4.4 million. The Freeman ball is up for auction through Saturday; the high bid as of Monday afternoon was $500,000.
