Re: Let's See Some Baseballs!
I know this is in answer to a very old post, but I was wondering about this ball. My grandfather, Merle Smith, played for the Alva Giants one season (or possibly the Alva Orphans) between 1900 and 1904. I was wondering if there was any chance he signed that ball?

This is one of my most recent finds. Signed by Dizzy Dean, and 15 others, inscribed World Series 1938 ... all Chicago Cubs. Also has Tony Lezzeri.

Re: Let's See Some Baseballs!
The last hit ball I personally secured was on 9/9/14, at Comiskey Park (aka US Cellular Field) in a 11-2 Oakland rout of the White Sox. Alberto Callaspo of Oakland ripped a shot off a John Danks pitch that bounced once in left field and hopped over the wall into the White Sox bullpen, where one of the relief pitchers gave it to me. It was my first-ever MLB ground-rule double and my second pro double (the first was at a game at Kane County in 1992 when Alex Ochoa hit a line shot that rolled under the fence and out of the park in left-center field). I wish I could post a photo of both, but I have no equipment to do so.
