Barry Bonds’ 715th home run ball fetched a winning auction bid of $220,100 on Thursday, much better than experts predicted for the shot that moved the troubled Giants slugger past Babe Ruth for second place on the career list.
A spokesman for Internet auction site eBay said the winning bidder was from California, but the identity wasn’t immediately revealed.
The ball was sold by Andrew Morbitzer, who was waiting in line for beer and peanuts when Bonds hit the home run.
