Default Home for a Vin Scully ball (and an introduction)

Hi everyone,

This is my first post here, so will start with an intro.

I am Vit-D. I am a small time collector of sports related items that I find cool. Mostly old baseball cards, but with some game used stuff as well. My favorite pieces of my collection are a game used SF Giants Juan Perez jersey from the 2014 NLDS and NLCS, a full (un-torn) ticket from the Kirk Gibson game, a card with piece of a HR ball from the year that Mark McGwire hit 70, and a UC Irvine Big West Basketball Championship ring (I am an alum.)

With that out of the way, one of the cool pieces in my collection is a game used ball from the final game of Vin Scully's announcing career. Not only that, but the ball was from the bottom of the 8th inning, and it was the ball that was hit for the final run and RBI that Vin ever called. Perhaps I am overrating the ball a bit, but I think it is an interesting piece, and perhaps the sort of thing that should be somewhere that people (especially Dodger Fans) could see it, rather than a bookshelf in my house.

If the right opportunity presented itself, I wouldn't mind considering the donation of this item to a museum or something like that, but I haven't been able to find the right place. I e-mailed the Baseball Hall of Fame, and they said that they were looking for things more closely tied to his career, but other than that, I have kind of hit a dead end.

I heard that this is THE place for vintage games used discussion. I realize this is totally vintage, but maybe you guys have some ideas?

Thank you in advance.
