Teams negotiate to get back homerun balls

Hey Scott. I think you're so wrapped up in your Ryan collection , you're forgetting about another So Cal Pitcher who would have certainly broke the five figure mark.

Final Out Ball from Koufax's Perfecto (which may come to market someday, unless it's in Cooperstown) would easily hit the five figure mark! It wouldn't surprise me one bit if it went for $50,000 either. I would imagine that some of his other milestone balls could fetch more than 10K. Final Outs of the other No-Nos. #382. And the Ball that he struck out his 15 Yankee to set the World Series Record and win Game 1 of the '63 Series all come to mind. How about the Ball from his First Major League Win?

Sandy has a very, VERY, strong and wealthy following of Fans as the prices realized for just about all of his Game Used Gear will attest. And I just don't see that changing anytime soon...

Jimmy,

After just returning from a business trip to the left coast I am admittedly groggy this morning and had not yet had my 1st cup of coffee when I posted this response.

No doubt you are correct about Sandy Koufax's milestone last pitch balls. Given Koufax's crossover popularity, etc., I would concur that we would see five figure prices in a major auction for his milestone balls.

Thanks for keeping me honest!

I'm the self-appointed Hall Monitor for the whole month of June! Next time you're out here, let me know, dinner is on me Buddy (no In-n-Outs in your part of the country ). BTW... I took Ben to his first, and second In-n-Out visits a few years ago on his trip to So Cal. Good Times!

It's a tough job, but somebody has to do it.

That's so funny about you mentioning In-n-Out! I was in Los Angeles briefly on Thursday. I had lunch at an In-n-Out!! Just for the record, I had a Double-Double with grilled onions, fries and a chocolate shake. As usual, it was all good. You are correct. No In-n-Out's or good authentic mexican food in the Midwest. These are the things I miss the most.

The next time I'm in LA, I promise to take you up on that Jimmy!

Next time order your burger "animal style"; it is off-menu and totally worth it. And the animal style fries are so addictive that they should be illegal...
