FS: Baseball Signed by Alex Rodriguez

Long story short, I've grown out of being a baseball fan.

How did I get the ball:

(Former) Relative worked in the visiting clubhouse for the Milwaukee Brewers. Yankees visited the Brewers in 2005 for interleague play. I was an A-Rod fan, relative got his signature for me.

It has been kept in that case for the last 7 years. I've never opened it. Never been in direct sunlight. House is air conditioned and never gets too hot/cold.

Looking for:

$150

According to my googling, the ball should be worth $250-400....and that'll rise once he hits home run #700

Nope, I'd like to get one, but I don't know how to go about that.

It wouldn't have a COA if it was not sold from a batch. Good luck with the sale. You might want to keep it though, just because the value might possibly go up once he is on the top of the list, barring injury of course.

Eh, sounds like a bit of a PITA. I'll probably wait until he breaks the record to get it certified.

Nice Ball. My Grandpa had a Babe Ruth Baseball signed he left for me in his will.. too bad they had gone over it because the signature was fading.


but it still has sentimental value to me.
