My question is, is this autograph authentic?

Thanks again for your help!!
I have no opinion on whether it is the same person as the one who played for the Yankees.

As to how I changed it: I copied the image as a jpeg. Put it in Adobe Photoshop then using the Enhance tab I adjusted the lighting and contrast to make the signature more visible. After saving it I used Ulead photo express paint function to circle the 'f'.
