The Historic Fenway Milestone
Fenway Park opened in 1912 as one of baseball’s most iconic venues—the oldest ballpark in MLB still in use. On August 9, 2003, during a Red Sox vs. Baltimore Orioles game, Kevin Millar crushed a solo home run that became the 10,000th home run ever hit at Fenway.
The ball sailed into the stands and was securely caught by fan Bill Dragovich (from South Bend, Indiana). The entire sequence was captured on live broadcast television—providing irrefutable video provenance that sets this ball apart from any other "milestone" HR ball.
Why This Ball Is Truly One-of-a-Kind
- Unique Milestone: Fenway-specific 10,000th HR (no other park has an authenticated ball with this exact claim and video backing).
- Strong Provenance: Live video footage of the hit, flight, and catch + personal account from the catcher.

- Historical Value Context: Comparable Fenway milestone items have sold privately or at auction in the $100,000–$500,000+ range. This combines rarity, proof, and Red Sox passion.

"FINALLY! How To Get A "Miracle Ball"
From The Desk Of: Bill Dragovich
Date: Wednesday, February 25, 2026
Subject: OPENING THE DOORS ... For a Limited Time...
Dear Collector,
Hey there, folks. My name is Bill Dragovich, from South Bend, Indiana.
Back on August 9, 2003, I was just your average baseball fan in the stands at Fenway Park — but baseball has been my life since I was a kid.
I grew up in South Bend, Indiana, playing every chance I got, including my college days on the field at Butler University where I suited up and competed as a player.
That summer day, I was on a dream trip to Fenway with my camera.
I wanted to capture what I hoped would be a solid swing from Kevin Millar — reliving the game I loved so much.
The count was full, the crowd buzzing... then crack!
He launches one deep to left — way up and tracking straight toward my section.
My heart jumps.
'This is coming right at me!'
I keep the camera up for a split second, trying to track it, but it's closing fast — too fast.
No time to keep camera on. I drop the camera to my side, hands shooting up on pure instinct.
The ball's dropping like a rocket.
It glances off another fan's leg — a quick deflection, a little bounce — and suddenly it's right there in my palm.
I clamp down hard, trapping it against my chest before it could pop out.
The place explodes — screams, cheers, people jumping, slapping my back.
I look down, heart pounding... and there it is: Fenway's 10,000th home run ball, secure in my hands after that wild ricochet.
For a guy who lived and breathed baseball from high school through Butler University, that chaotic moment — from filming to fumbling to finally holding history — felt like the ultimate payoff.
Still gives me chills every time.
Cameras caught the whole thing.
But here's the part almost nobody knows:
That ball didn't just make history at Fenway... it brought a miracle into my own home.
If you're a collector, investor, or Red Sox die-hard who wants a piece with real soul behind it, stick around.
This ain't your average memorabilia pitch.
You know the feeling... you've built an incredible collection — maybe some Fisk items, Ortiz moments, or big-name rookie cards — but you're always hunting for that next-level piece that stands alone.
You know how it is if you're into this stuff – you're always chasing that special item.
Something with video proof, a story that hits you in the gut, not just another signed ball from eBay.
Me?
I grew up playing ball at Adams High School in South Bend – infielder, late '70s.
Loved the game my whole life.
Never thought I'd be part of Fenway lore.
But that day in '03, I did. And holding that ball felt like catching lightning.
Problem is, most milestone balls out there?
They're cool, but they don't have the heart.
They don't have a family miracle attached.
Mine does.
Let me take you back a bit. My wife and I... man, we wanted kids bad.
For years – I mean years – we tried everything.
Doctor visits, tests, shots, the works.
Nothing.
Month after month of bad news.
It wore us down.
We were heartbroken, quiet about it, but it hurt.
We got to the point where we said, 'Okay, adoption it is.'
Started looking into it, filling out forms, getting ready for a different path.
Felt like giving up on the dream we'd had since we got married.
Then I head to Fenway that August night.
Just a getaway, a ballgame. Millar hits it – 10,000th at Fenway.
I catch it.
Crowd roaring, NESN cameras right there.
I get home with this ball, still buzzing.
Few days later – next Thursday – my wife has a doctor's appointment.
Routine check.
Doctor comes in, smiles, and says, 'You're pregnant.'
After all that struggle... right after I catch this ball... it happens.
We canceled the adoption plans.
Our son came along, and our family was complete.
I always say that ball carried some Fenway magic.
Like it was meant to be the breakthrough we needed.
It didn't just mark 10,000 home runs at the park – it marked a new chapter for us.
Happiness we thought we'd never have.
And here’s what still gives me chills: just days after I caught that ball in August 2003, we got the pregnancy news we’d waited years for.
Our son was born on April 5, 2004 — right as the Red Sox season kicked off.
That was the year everything aligned: our family’s miracle at home, and the Red Sox on the field — coming back from 0-3 against the Yankees, breaking the 86-year Curse, and finally winning the World Series.
It felt like Fenway’s energy didn’t just change our lives… it carried through the whole magical 2004 season for Boston.
Holding this ball reminds me: the right moment can spark breakthroughs everywhere.
So here it is today: still in great shape, authenticated, full video proof anyone can watch.
No other '10,000th HR' ball from any stadium has this kind of documented story – video of the catch, the milestone, and yeah, the personal miracle.
Fenway's the oldest park; this is one-of-one.
If you're building a legacy collection, investing in something that appreciates (Fenway icons like Fisk's have gone for big money), or just love the Red Sox story... this ball's got heart, history, and proof.
I'm not putting this up for public auction.
Don't want the circus, the lowball bids, the 'burn.'
I've held onto it all these years because it means something.
Now I'm ready to pass it to the right person – someone who'll tell the story, appreciate the miracle side, keep it safe.
Private sale only.
Starting at $100,000, but I'm open to stronger offers from folks who really get it.
Higher bids get first look, full discretion.
Multiple people have reached out already.
This won't sit around long.
