Please Help Identify Some Baseball Autographs
I could really use some help identifying four autographs. I have collected hundreds over the years going to games with my son but for some reason I have a few that I have no idea about. I can say they are all going to be between 2004-2018, I know, your thinking that should be easy! I have spent hours doing my own research on line and trying to connect the dots through my photos and ticket stubs and cleared up several others but these four are eluding me. I almost always see games at Petco Park with the Padres. But I have also been to games at stadiums for the Giants, Angels and Dodgers, as well as going to several games for Spring Training in Arizona in 2009 & 2016. The first photo with the autograph just under the player with the bat was obtained on 3/22/09 during Spring Training, Padres v. Diamondbacks. I am pretty sure it is a D-Back since the other 10 autos on the ball are D-Backs but it could be a Padre. I already know who the #25 auto is, i need the one above it. The other three autos I simply have no time or place reference. Any help is much appreciated.

I looked but nothing comes to mind. Maybe the ones with #s could be cross-referenced with an internet search.
I spent hours trying to cross reference based on the number and came up empty handed. I am just taking a stab and hoping someone may have the same autograph or have at least seen it. Thanks for at least looking.
Don't you just love those modern "scribble" autographs!
Sports personalities and celebrities could all heed the advice of Harmon Killebrew.... https://www.nytimes.com/2014/03/29/sports/baseball/in-an-era-of-squiggles-you-cant-tell-baseball-the-players-without-a-handwriting-analyst.html
Great article!
I don't think i ever got killebrew but I did get old timerCharles Gehringer who had a great (legible) signature.
Who's the #25 Auto? Might give us a time frame or teammate of the rest perhaps. (or at least the one on that ball)
Longoria Collector. Love the Longo! 600+ PSA Graded 4,700+ unique Longoria cards scanned on TCDB 800+ different Longo autograph cards Jeff
The auto above #25 is James Skelton and I only figured that out because my son got his full auto on another ball the same day.
