This is a startling artifact from the man who may ultimately retire with the gaudiest power numbers imaginable a gamed-used home run baseball from early in Alex Rodriguezs career lets say about 599 home runs ago. A-Rod socked 42 in that 1998 season only the fourth full year of his fabled career and this one is an Official American League Budig ball showing enormous usage including dirt and extensive staining browning pine tar and scuff marks. Rodriguez penned a ballpoint autograph on the sweet spot then moved to the adjacent panel to note HR #24 1998. The homer was struck in the third inning with no one on base in a 4-3 loss to Oakland on June 14 1998.
