I won this baseball yesterday on ebay, and went to the mlb.com certification page with the number provided to verify the signers and the authenticity. It came up authentic and it states the signers of the baseball...it states the ball has every major player's autograph on it but i cant seem to find a few...mainly mariano rivera, jorge posada, and alfonso soriano...i see jeter, torre, mel stottlemeyer, bernie williams, roger clemens, mike mussina, jose contreras, karim garcia, chris hammond, juan rivera, andy pettitte, david wells, david delucci, jason giambi and aaron boone....i dont see or can make out the other ones...any help would be greatly appreciated...i emailed the seller and was told that he just sells what people give to him to auction off and he really doesnt know. thanks in advance

    mariano rivera is in the third pic down
    The bottom pic shows Wells, Giambi and Pettite.

    That might be Soriano on the third pic down, just above the "Rawlings" tough to tell.

    Nice ball, nice price.

    << <i>Up for auction is a rare Official 2003 World Series Baseball Autographed by the entire New York Yankees Team. The 27 autographs include Derek Jeter, Joe Torre, Mike Mussina, David Wells, Bernie Williams, Andy Pettite and many, many more...check out all of the pictures.

    The seller shouldn't have said "the entire" team but did post several hi-res photos of the ball.

    Let us know what happens.

    I have to disagree on Rivera...I dont think thats his sig. I dont think his is on the ball at all. Its a very recognizeable sig and it just doesnt appear to be there.

    The seller doesnt mention him at all, which to me would be proof positive that he didnt sign the ball.

    Even though those sigs are not on there , that is still a nice baseball .
    And that is a real good price too .
    I love that baseball .
    Do you collect team signed baseballs , or just all kinds of baseballs?
    I noticed at the bottom of your pages you collect the 500 HR Club .
    How are you doing on that ?
    Would love to see some pics if you have some time . image
