Cory Youmans, the fan who caught Judge’s record-breaking 62nd home run ball, has decided to sell the piece of baseball history via an auction house, according to an ESPN report.

Youmans told ESPN he made the decision “after weeks of a lot of deep conversations,” with his wife and lawyer. The lucky fan also has already turned down a $3 million offer for the ball that was caught at Globe Life Field on Oct. 4.

“It seems fair in the sense it gives anyone that is interested and has the means the opportunity to own it,” Youmans told ESPN.
