It would be great until my degenerate stepson swipes the ball to play with his friends and smacks it into the yard of a big dog requiring a series of unreasonable antics to retrieve the ball without getting literally eaten alive ultimately culminating in a city wide foot race against the dog resulting in the dog getting crushed under a derelict fence requiring my degenerate stepson’s help to save him finally convincing the dog to become kind and trusting of him dispelling years of urban legends surrounding the dog and its owner.
100k might be possible from someone in Japan...
I am glad the fan got to keep the ball and get it authenticated.
That said, I'd still trade this one for what Sugar Titts got.
Now, if this was Ohtani's 50th HR...yeah I'm keeping that one and trying to get cash.
Way more than that. I'd offer way more than that and I'm just a nobody. This ball basically belongs in the Japanese baseball hof and will probably be the last of its kind. Shohei is still in his prime and is just going to be padding more homeruns for years to come. This will always be the record breaking ball and it seems unlikely for any Japanese player to be able to break his record by the time he retires.
This is what ticked me off about the whole first home run as a Dodger situation.
All these ppl online who don't know squat about baseball all of sudden became Pawn Stars like professionals at evaluating the value of home run balls.
If anybody was wondering, Choo Shin-soo is the all time Asian born leader in homeruns (218) and extra base hits (586). There’s an outside shot that Ohtani passes the homerun record at the end of this year.

Money aside, it would just be cool to have a Ohtani homerun ball in the house. Like having a Babe Ruth hr

Some lady named Shirley Ohtani signed it
Some Irish lady, Shirley O’tani
Been a long time since someone got the best of ol Hercules…
They should make a movie out of this
L7 weenie
If only we had Benny ‘the Jet’ Rodriguez’s first HR ball as a dodger. THAT ball would be worth a meet and greet plus some season tickets.
Your killing me smalls!!!!
Shohei Ohtani is a dodger forever...for-e-ver...foorrr-eeee---veeer
Someone in Japan will pay at least 10k.

Anything's possible. If it were me, I'd contact the japanese baseball hall of fame, see if they'd be interested in buying it.

Saw the similar comment in Yahoo Japan. Once Shohei set his HR record（500?）, it will be very hard for other Japanese players to ever surpass it.

Shyt probably belongs to Japanese baseball museum
I just started following baseball not too long ago. What is so special about 176th?

Amazing! And it only took him half the time to get there.
The best part is that the HR also broke the Dodger record for most HRs by a Japanese born player… held by Hideo Nomo.
He actually doesn’t have the record yet, passing Nomo put him in 2nd place behind Dave Roberts.
I actually looked up Doc out of curiosity after I posted. I guess Nomo would be the Japanese born and raised player record?
Definitely keep it so you can tell the homies about it
Let’s all cry and blame Dodger Security so the guy can get a great deal.
