The auction for Shohei Ohtani's 50th home run ball has blown past the $1 million mark.

From the "Blues Brothers" harmonica to Wayne's hat to that famous cowbell, the show offers plenty of memorabilia to choose from.

After turning down a $25,000 offer, a father-son duo sold the card for more than double at auction over the weekend.

The jersey worn by LeBron James on "The Chosen One" cover of Sports Illustrated in 2002 sold for $1.3 million Friday night, becoming just the second James jersey to eclipse $1 million and setting the record for a high school jersey sold publicly.

No athlete has commanded more attention from collectors recently than Shohei Ohtani. And while his 50-50 ball heading to auction has been the biggest story, a record-setting sale has highlighted a surging card market for Ohtani, too.
