The reporter reached out to me a couple of weeks ago and did a great job in verifying and trying to “get it right.” I have no idea what Mr. Ball’s motives are but it’s nice to see his fake material exposed. James F.

Nice to see behind the scenes work pay off for a change!

Quote:
Port Byron native Dale Ball spent the first half of 2019 making headlines after buying what he claims is a million-dollar Babe Ruth baseball card for $2. Additionally, after interviewing a few collectors and following up with Ball, The Citizen found several inconsistencies in his story. Those inconsistencies suggest that not only is his Ruth indeed fake, but that Ball has consciously deceived the media into reporting otherwise. Ball, for his part, rejected the accusation in a July 25 phone interview. He doesn't need publicity or money, he said. In his July 25 interview with The Citizen, Ball dismissed collectors like Feagin and Russell as jealous. "People want to be negative because they can't be happy for someone," he said. "I love it, because all it does is stir up drama and I get more publicity."

Love that he outed this clown. I hope that other media outlets that have given him publicity pick this up and get their original stories straight.

The jealousy bit was funny to me. While I work in the industry I do not collect or have hobby interests any longer. Nothing to be jealous of.

Yeah, I'm not a collector either, though David identified me as one.
Also hard to be jealous of his ridiculous fakes, but that's probably just the jealousy talking...
