Shohei Ohtani’s 300th Professional Home Run Ball Sells In Auction

Shohei Ohtani reached another milestone earlier this season when he hit the 300th home run of his professional career in the Los Angeles Dodgers’ 9-7 win over the Colorado Rockies on June 24.

The two-run shot, off Ryan Rolison, was Ohtani’s 252nd home run in the Majors. He previously hit 48 home runs during his stint with the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters in Nippon Professional Baseball.

Ohtani’s historic home run ball went up for bidding in the 2025 Lelands Summer Classic Auction that ran from July 27 through Aug. 16. The starting price was $25,000 and it ended up selling for $36,935.

The ball was photo-matched and consigned by the fan who caught it at Coors Field.

Several Ohtani items have sold for high amounts in acutions over the last year. The two-way star’s record-setting home run ball that put him in the 50/50 club sold for nearly $4.392 million to a Taiwanese investment firm.

That represented the highest purchase price for a home run in MLB history, surpassing the $3.05 million that Mark McGwire’s 70th blast from the 1998 season netted.

Freddie Freeman’s walk-off grand slam in Game 1 of the 2024 World Series went on to sell for $1.56 million, which ranks third.

Shohei Ohtani’s 2025 season

Ohtani has hit 16 more home runs since his record-breaking long ball against the Rockies, giving him a National League-best 43 for the 2025 season.

Ohtani is 11 home runs away from a career-high that he set last year, and has 38 potential games in the regular season to surpass that total.

The 31-year-old will likely hit his 300th MLB home run at some point during the 2026 season. Ohtani has belted 97 homers since joining the Dodgers, which is tied with Aaron Judge for the most in baseball during that span.
