October 12, 20224 yr I have a signed baseball from a pitcher but I don't know who it is, It's a pitcher from the late 90's.
October 12, 20224 yr I looked through the names from the 90s and the only one I could see it being was Mike Milchin (1996). It takes a lot of squinting to see that name in there, but for the other names even squinting didn't help. There probably aren't a lot of samples to compare it to, so I'm not sure how you would validate it.
October 12, 20224 yr Author Thanks for your help, maybe I'll send it to some local sportscasters next.

Could be a minor leaguer from spring training.
October 12, 20224 yr At first look I thought the first name was Todd. Therefore it could be Todd Ritchie who played with the team in that era and then went on to have a nice career with four other teams. Your other "T" options from that era are Travis Miller and Travis Baptist.

October 18, 20224 yr Todd's signature was all over the place, at times. But it is a pretty close match.
