Team-Signed Ball ID?

[thecatspajamas]

How is it that I can have an entire team-signed ball and not be able to make out enough of the signatures to ID the year/team? I can only hope (for sake of my own embarrassment) that this is a minor league team ball. I thought I had a lead with Sid Monge, but I'm still scratching my head here. Any ideas to get me started...?

I know nothing of signatures, but a lot of those look like girls names to me

Hmmmm, you may be onto something there. And now that you mention it, I do see a lot of lady-names in there. No wonder none of the dots were connecting for me. Talk about not seeing the forest for the trees

looks like the 1995 colorado silver bullets womens professional baseball team,

click on 1995 profiles. Billie Jo Charpia only played for them in 1995 and she is on the ball.

WOW! Great job Travis! Going from the rosters on that page you linked, it looks like it may be a mix of 1995 and 1996 signatures it is definitely the 1995 team as I was able to match up every signature. Props to you for finding those rosters in the first place. Much appreciated!

Wasn't Phil Neikro associated with that team?

Yes, both Phil and Joe were coaches according to the roster Travis linked to. Unfortunately none of the coaches signed the ball I have.
