It’s the third-most expensive baseball ever sold, behind Shohei Ohtani’s $4.4M 50/50 home run ball and Mark McGwire’s 70th home run ball, which sold for roughly $3M in 1999.

Los Angeles Dodgers star Freddie Freeman's World Series walk-off grand slam baseball sold for $1.56 million at auction, making it the third most expensive baseball ever sold, organisers said on Sunday.

The grand-slam ball that immortalized Freddie Freeman as a World Series hero against the Yankees netted a similarly grand payout.
