Sent CROLB to Trevor Hoffman c/o Brewers

Fading is always an issue on any baseball! Always try to display your balls not in alot of direct sunlight. Sunlight is as big of a threat over time as water is!

Alright, thanks again.

The coating on the balls holds ballpoint, but in my experience the ink changes color or fades. Blue ballpoint can even turn greenish on them or fade. Sharpie does seem to hold.

I wonder what kind of ballpoint you got to work because the Med. Papermate and another from the table wouldn't work for Casey McGehee auto on that coating.
So I asked if he'd just use the blue Sharpie after a few attempts to get the Ballpoints started, and he neatly traced over the spot he was trying to get the ballpoints to start.

Get the ones without the shiny coating on them, they're a little bit more $ but hold sharpie and pen

What Rawlings ball are you talking about?

Good Luck. I imagine when he chooses to sign, he probably gets the bigger items first.

Like Salomon Torres said last year, "YOU WAIT NO MORE!"

After 25 days I got my CROLB signed & personalized perfectly on the Sweetspot from Mr. Trevor "Hells Bells" Hoffman! With the provided Fine Pt Blue Sharpie.
