This auction used a “soft closing” like the ongoing bidding for the Ziggurat federal campus in Laguna Niguel.
Last bid of the day in the auction for Shohei Ohtani’s historic home run ball, according to Goldin Auctions website. Dodgers star Shohei Ohtani watches the flight of his two-run home run, his 50th of the season, during the seventh inning of their game against the Miami Marlins last Thursday in Miami. The ball, which gave him the first 50-home run, 50-stolen base season in MLB history, was retrieved by a fan and will go up for auction on Friday, with an opening bid of $500,000.
On Tuesday, there were 15 more bids that started 3 minutes before the initial 7 p.m. deadline. This activity upped the price by another $1.8 million. So these extra innings of bidding, lasting almost two hours, helped to add 71% to the final price. Who owns the Ohtani ball will fall to the courts, which will decide who gets the sale proceeds. When the home run soared into the stands in Miami, a melee ensued as fans attempted to grab the souvenir. The person who gained control of the ball and put it up for auction is being sued by another fan who claims they possessed it first.
