The signatures belong to the players who played for the Ponce Lions team in the Puerto Rico Winter League. Rickey Henderson played for this team in the 1980-81 winter campaign and broke the record for stolen bases in a season. Rickey's signature is not on the ball, I think the ball probably corresponds to the 1984-85 team (maybe 83-84).
Besides the players already mentioned, I recognize right away these former major leaguers:
Edwin Rodriguez (also managed the Marlins)
Ed Romero
Luis DeLeon
Eddie Vargas
Pepe Mangual
And little known minor leaguers:
Miguel Alicea
Frank Vazquez
Lazaro Vilella
Roberto Diaz
George Borges
