Default Expert help needed on this 1917 baseball

Ok so I purchased a baseball off of ebay. I know it is a 1917-1918 Official National League Baseball by matching up the markings with Keyman Collectibles guide. The sweet Spot says Nap Rucker 1914. Not sure why it would say that due to this being a 1917 ball. There are other things on here written that I can not make out (partly because I may not know what I am looking out ie signatures etc). I took multiple photos of different panels under blacklights and have added them here.

Anyone able to identify anything at all? I see one thing appears to say Rucker & Jim?

here are the photos.....

Hoping we can uncover something cool as heck.

I have one.

They are used in forensic, but also infrared photography is a popular hobby so anyone who can take infrared photos could do it.

Thanks a lot! I'm gonna ask a few photographers by me. Are there any programs I can use that can do this as well? I couldn't seem to find anything

No program, but there are regular digital cameras that have been converted to take ir photos. That's what I have. They are normal digital cameras, but have had the ir filter removed from the inside. That's what most ir photography people use, and you can find them for sale on eBay.
