The man who gave away Cal Raleigh’s 60th home run ball on Wednesday night might be kicking himself today, ’cause TMZ Sports is told the memento could be worth a small fortune.
David Kohler, founder of SCP Auctions, told us on Thursday if Raleigh’s artifact were going up on his block, he’d expect it to sell for somewhere between $100,000-$200,000.
It, of course, could be worth even more, Kohler said, if it ultimately ends up being the last one the Seattle superstar hits in 2025.
“It’s a phenomenal home run ball historically for the Seattle base,” Kohler told us. “MLB catchers are very seldom in the home run race of a MLB season. So, very unique.”
Raleigh, if you missed it, belted the dinger in the eighth inning of the Mariners’ tilt with the Rockies at T-Mobile Park.
The man who snared it ultimately ended up giving it away to a little kid nearby. It’s unclear what’s happened with it.
