Goldin Auctions will proceed with its scheduled auction of the coveted Shohei Ohtani 50/50 home run ball following a Florida judge's ruling late Thursday.
Max Matus, an 18-year-old fan who says he is the rightful owner of the ball, had filed a civil lawsuit Wednesday seeking a temporary injunction to halt the auction, which is scheduled to open Friday.
Matus's lawyer, John Uustal, said Thursday the auction will go live Friday, but that the judge scheduled a full evidentiary hearing for Oct. 10 and that the Ohtani ball cannot be sold before that date.
