Default Ruth auto

Any thoughts on the below autograph. I've tried to research it but have come to the conclusion I'm crap at it! Don't think I could tell if the babe was in front of me signing it!! Gut instinct is its bad as the storey is far fetched! Any thoughts, options would be gratefully appreciated.

Looks like it took 30 years to sign that baseball. I'd stay away.

I mean, everything. But start simply with the spacing of the letters. Look how spread out they are (from being drawn slowly), and compare it to a genuine Ruth. No to mention it is slowly drawn, the letters are not similar, etc.

sometimes you can even look beyond the signature. The stitching to me looks too bright and new to be something that would have been made so long ago.
