How it spread

Trace the origin

Ohtani reached the milestone in Miami. Highlights, athlete reactions and Japanese newspaper extras carried it beyond baseball. MLB added advertising and merchandise; the ball later sold for $4.392 million amid an ownership dispute.

Documented milestone; not a measured attention peak.
