Compare McGwire's attitude to Roger Maris'. Maris met with the guy who caught his 61st in 1961 and told the guy to keep it. Maris said "he needs it more than I do." The guy sold it and used the money to buy his first home. Maris was a class act.

@@shadow_tdwell it was a historic moment, so yes, anything tied to history of a sport, it's gonna fetch a lot of money. It wasn't luck, it was historic. Just imagine what Barry's 73rd home run ball sold for until the steroids scandal came.... Again when you think about the era and what the depreciation of it ended up dropping the price to despite the era, his ball is still estimated about 300k also, with his 756th home run ball worth around $750k despite the era. It's still worth a decent amount of money despite the history behind it. While it's very unlikely that McGuire nor Bonds makes the Hall of Fame because of the era, and may only get there by special conditions and not by vote, their memorabilia will still fetch a decent amount. It's sad that the steroids were used for years and years before it was exploited in the 90s yet it's because it was exploited in the 90s, these players in the late 90s get punished for it when it was widely used for decades prior. But it is what it is though.

@@lancemanyon7645actually you’re wrong as well. He was worth way more and actually owned the oilers hockey team as well. He collects baseballs. He bought bonds ball as well when he broke that record. Do some research. Here, I’ll save you the time and post below. You’re welcome. McFarlane, 61, is a longtime baseball fan and spent $3 million for Mark McGwire’s 70th home run ball in 1999, along with another reported $300,000 for the three home run balls prior to No. 70. His collection also includes several Sammy Sosa baseballs and Barry Bonds’ MLB record 73rd home run ball from 2001 - which set him back only $500,000 when he bought it in 2003. “If I don’t (buy a Judge ball), I still have the top three balls - Bonds 73, McGwire 70, and Sosa 66,” McFarlane said, referencing the top three single-season home run totals in MLB history. McGwire and Sosa hit their historic totals in 1998, then Bonds surpassed them in 2001. He estimates he’s spent about $4 million on baseballs, although most of his collection of about 70 balls are more personally meaningful than historic with high value.

I held a Baseball that was signed by both Mickey Mantle and Joe DiMaggio, in 1973. My Mom had it on the Fireplace Mantle and my Uncle Barry said that he wanted it, so we gave it to him. I found out in 2006, that it was a 1951 Baseball and the New York Yankees won the World Series that year. I'm told that ball is worth a minimum of $10,000, but it's not for sale because my Great Uncle George Fisher owned the Staten Island Dry Cleaners and had a contract with the Yankees to clean their uniforms. So. It has sentimental value to my Uncle Barry (my Mom's older brother). Unfortunately he's in Chemo therapy and he's not going to be around much more. Its sad. My cousin Robert and his sons will have that Baseball and keep it in the family! We were All born in the Bronx too! It's not always about the money!

For those of you who would like the full story this is it: legendary comic book artist and former collegiate baseball player Todd McFarlane purchased the ball not just because he was a massive baseball fan but also in order to help legitimize his name throughout the sports world. He had an action figure company called McFarlane Toys that was known for its incredible detail, he knew there was huge money to be made in licensing sports figures so he thought buying the ball and putting his name out there would help in the future when attempting to get the licensing rights to major sports leagues and it appears like it did (his figures were incredible as is, chances are as long as he got an interview with the leagues he would’ve got the deals but getting the interview isn’t a cakewalk). Lastly guess who ended up buying Barry Bonds record home run ball? That’s right, Todd McFarlane for a little over $500,000 so do not let this KZitem short convince you that it was a bad purchase because there’s way more to the story than what this guy was willing to share. People who only tell 1/4th the story are ruining this planet and attempting to get you beat up, do not fall for their half truths research and make sure you’re fully aware of what’s going on or you’ll end up making KZitem shorts for a hobby/job like this guy (chances are he’s on TikTok too).

They NEVER found steroids in his system ever. He caught hell because baseball banned Andro 6 unbeknownst to Macguires. They banned it because it claimed to help boost Testosterone levels which 1 year later was proved a fraudulent statement. Now Barry Bonds is a different story. He tested positive several times and his seller produced documentation proving Bonds was contacting him to purchase steroids. Macguires catches so much shit for being a naturally large man who worked hard. He entered the League banging over 50 home runs and never stopped. He just got better and stronger as one would with a life style that is lived by hardwood. Everyone is so fast to believe what they hear in news or just garbage sports shows. Bonds entered the league a good hitter but not big on home runs then in his thirties starts suddenly banging them out of the park at the same time his supplier has him on tape talking steroids and how much he needs to bring to pay him and then showing up to meet the guy and getting recorded again saying this is what I owe you for the juice.

Actually, divided by more than 10. You can thank inflation for that.

When I was about 13 years old I told a lot of people at my school that my dad worked for MLB. For $15 dollars I can get any ball signed. I would get the money and sign it myself. Those were the good days.

My stepfather Thomas Franken, and Used to be the Audio Engineer for Ebbets Field, City Field and other things, He had a baseball signed by all of the Brooklyn Dodgers for the World Series,1955!!! He forgot about Finger Oil!! 🥴 He also had a long breakfast with Jackie Robinson on his way to St Louis to cover a game in case the microphone broke!! But as all things come and go, technology over ran his abilities to keep up!!

I go to games constantly and I always think about it…If I catch a really important ball, I don’t want no tickets, no bats, no signature…I just want my money. All these ppl are millionaires already so it’s time for me to get some of that money…don’t even ask me !! 😂

Imagine the range of emotions from the fan. Says he wants to meet Mark McGuire, gets turned down so he keeps the ball. 3 months later gets paid 3million dollars changing his life forever. He’s now indebted to Mark McGuire.😂

I remember that the fan who caught McGwire's ball want a long list of items (e.g. jersey, bat, etc.) to be signed for the trade. McGwire had wanted to give the ball to his son which is still a joke given its then value.

The single-season HR record is 62, set by Aaron Judge, breaking Roger Maris's mark. The career record is 755, set in 1974. It still stands. Any questions? I didn't think so. Anyone who defends a cheat is also one.

Bonds either hit his 499th or 500th homer in Houston and the TV news was interviewing the man that got the ball. He said “when I saw the ball coming towards me the estrogen just started pumping” lol. I think ball was worth 6 figures but he has to hear the estrogen shat from his buddies for the rest of his life.

Could it be that McGuire just didn't want to take the ball from the fan so that fan keeps it? If so, that was a thoughtful move by McGuire. Think about it.
