The seller, baseball fan Steve Williams, got the ball after a scramble in the bleachers at SBC Park on Sept. 17 -- a mad dash that may have enriched him but also landed him in court. Timothy Murphy has sued Williams, saying he should get the ball because he had it locked behind his knees before Williams swiped it.
A San Francisco judge refused to hold up the sale, freeing Williams to auction it. Murphy is pressing ahead with the lawsuit, seeking the proceeds from the ball's sale.
