This was a conversation I've had recently with some friends who were all at the game and I'm curious on the groups opinions on the topic?

A ball not hit or pitched to Ichiro. Any ball he hit into play was immediately thrown back to the dugout and its my understanding that those all went to MLB, HOF & Ichiro.

Only one hologrammed ball was sold in a public manner so far and it was done via auction at the game the next day in Colorado via the MLB ballpark app. As a result, it had very limited visibility and went for about $260 which I'd guess is way below market value. That ball was resold for $1250 via private sale to a collector.

Now two more balls are being sold by the Rockies via MLB Auctions with starting bids of $500 each.

With those details stated, what do you guys think?
