Help with some Early 80's / Late 70s Dodgers Balls
 

Hi guys- got a handful of balls in a small lot I recently purchased that I need some help with. Some of the signatures are super light and/or rubbed off as it looks like a kid used the same ball for signatures over the course of several years.

Any help is appreciated! TYIA!!


The first ball I think is 1985 Dodgers; I have already ID'ed a few, but need some help with the others

Ball #2 is a ZINGER - these are pretty tough, outside the ones I've ID'ed - I think this one is from 1978(?)

Panel 3; # 2 is Lee Lacy

Thank You! I totally see it now, IDK how I was missing that now you point it out! Given its got Lee Lacy, I actually think I have the others figured out (it was from 1978; I was stuck on 1980 for some reason)

Many of these are too faint for my eyes. Here are some, however:

Ball 1, Panel 1:

#2: A messier Rick Honeycutt. He had a few different versions which he used interchangeably--apparently, sometimes even on the same item! His presence would place the ball at 1983 if you had already narrowed it down to 1981-83.

Panel 2, #3 is not Bill Russell, but rather Ron Perranoski

Ball 2:

Panel 4, #4 is not Dave Stewart, but rather Al Oliver. This also isolates the ball to the 1985 season.

Panel 4, bottom doesn't appear to be Garvey and it's a bit too obscured to make out.

I believe I agree with any others where you've added "??".

Thank you! Isolating to '85 with Al Oliver helps with a few others; yea wasn't entirely sure on the Garvey, was grasping at straws, given the assumed years - but seems there's now a new roster to look through.

EDIT: I think with your help, isolating to '85, I have figured it out - leaving above in case I'm wrong.

THANK YOU for the assistance!

Ball #1 - Panel 2 is not Fernando Valenzuela, it is Mariano Duncan.

Thank you! You're right!
