Help with a # 28 Autographed Ball

    After I hit a home run I had a habit of running the bases with my head down. I figured the pitcher already felt bad enough without me showing him up rounding the bases.

    And fairly certain he only wore #28 his rookie season.

    Nice try, but that's not Mark Grace.

    I'm 100% certain it's Marc Newfield of Mariners/Padres fame.

    Agree - perhaps an early sig - his has changed over time but here's an older sig - he curves his letters differently today IMO.

    agree on the "dating" of the signature, the ball is a pretty early version IMO, probably 1st or 2nd year in the bigs

    there's several examples on early cards of his on a search, it's how i confirmed who i thought it was
