And that's why records exist - to be broken by guys named Aloysius.

It’s going to be heartbreaking to fans everywhere when we discover that Aloysius was using performance enhancing drugs with a concoction of lamb entrails, rat poison, and methamphetamine when breaking the record.

''Tis rumored that Aloysius was a voracious consumer of original recipe "Coca-Cola.

It was said the guy who caught the ball turned down 3M for it. It's going to a Goldin auction in the future. Personally, I probably would have taken the money!! A bird in hand and all..

Judge said he won’t bid on it because it is out of his price range.

It’s going to list with a $1,000,000 opening bid. Seems like a ridiculous price. I would’ve taken the $3 in a heartbeat… and bought a Wagner. Or a house.

Greed! If he gets more than $3M, then good call. If not, then bad call. However, $3M is guaranteed right now and is a tremendous amount of money for the ball. So I'm a guy at a game, who catches Judge's #62 HR AL record ball, and I'm offered $3M for it. No brainer in my book!
