Last Hope: Can anyone identify these??

3 Attachment(s)

If not, they go into the bargain bin.

The left ball in pic 3 was identified as Bill Lee, but I don't think so. The top left in pic 2 is a really cool signature, but I can't read a single letter! The first ball in pic 1 screams out Torii Hunter, but I know it's not.

Thanks, Ken

Andy Benes second pic top right. Will think more about the others.

Left upper one 3rd pic might be Bobby Bonilla. He was signing just his last name for a while IP.

I don't think that's Bill Lee... I actually think it's Bobby Bonilla.

Totally agree. I got Bonilla IP in 1989 and the signature is spot on to my ball.

You are correct, it is 100% Bonilla. Lee's is close, but spells his letters more.

Here's a perfect Bonilla: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1992-LEAF-30...item19b79cbd89

Bottom photo Tom Swayze? I might just be ready for Ole Miss Baseball though.

For some reason the first ball in the first pic reminds me alot of Todd Hundley...His sig changed alot, and I can't say I've ever seen one like it though. But there are a few similarities. I also don't remember him ever wearing 45 though..

Thanks a ton, guys. I completely see Wagner, Bonilla, and Benes now. I wouldn't even know where to begin to find a Tom Swayze autograph to compare this one to.

Definitely not Todd Hundley. He wore the number 9 and looks nothing like the ball I had him sign when he was my coach at Cubs camp.

I didn't think it was. Although it shares mixed characteristics of his different variations over the year...

Tom Swayze?

Not very close, but could be later in life maybe?
