The Fate of #756 by Marc Ecko

It would be disrespectful to give the ball to Cooperstown with an asterisk branded on it.

Exactly. I know this situation is not exactly analogous, but what if the person who caught Aaron's home run ball wrote something racist on that before it was put into the hall? (I don't know if it in the hall) Defacing this type of material is never a good idea. It's extremely arrogant of this person to do this.

And I am going to say this before anyone attacks me, I agree that his ownership of the ball gives him the right to defile it anyway he sees fit. I think he should use better judgment and not ruin a piece of history.
