The groundskeeper Tom Forneris retrieved Mark McGwire's home run ball number 62 (1998). The Baseball was returned to McGwire, and was later sent to the baseball HOF in Cooperstown. Therefore a value cannot be put on the baseball. The year Mark McGwire broke Roger Maris's record in 1998 McGwire hit 70 Home runs, and hit 65 the following year in 1999. Mark McGwire's 63rd Home Run ball sold for $50,000. at the same auction that saw McGwire's 70th Home Run ball sell at a record $3 million in 1999. Keep in mind this is also before the steroid scandal, and both baseballs might sell at a much lower price today.
