He's the Mgr. of the Cardinals minor league team that plays at Roger Dean. He is a very nice guy that most people going there don't really know. Pitched the perfect game against the Dodgers in 1991.

One of Rawlings cheaper balls. However, it has a leather cover with a solid cork/rubber center. CROLB is $3 vs. ROMLB is $16.

where did you get those pictures that you had McGwire and Garcia sign?

Google then did my own background stuff. Usually, when they see a background or custom stuff like I put on the pictures, they know I'm not a reseller and will put whatever I ask after their sigs. Notice I had McGwire put his ROY 87 on his pic. The difference between the Cards & Marlins (kind of funny) is that some of the less known Marlins had not seen some of the pictures I had of them & they asked me to bring them copies (which I always try to do for them).

On choosing balls for for auto's... Here is a couple of pics comparing CROLB vs ROMLB vs Rawlings Spec balls

The ink tends to have strong fading on the CROLB, if you can use the Rawlings Spec balls or ROMLB, the ink will hold better with time...
lizard-jd... If you want a couple (at face value $5) lmk ...I'm heading to RDS today (2/27) so just drop me a PM and we can meet up

That is a very nice comparison. Did you use the same type pen across all three balls to make sure of the consistency and that was not the variation? I have some CROLBs (or similar) that are a year old that still look like the day it was signed. I just make sure the ball has a true leather cover before I buy it. I call the CROLB, "Cheap" Rawlings Official League Ball...
