Recognize Autograph?

[Case12]

Anyone recognize this autographed ball? It was gotten by me in person probably signed in 2000, probably a show in Chicago. Don't know if it was a retired or active player. It is on a MLB. Thank you very much for your help.

I almost always had balls signed to my kids. I am a collector, so never planned to sell. Winston was born in 1999. I took him to many shows. (As I did all my kids.) My fault for not marking the cube....then 20 years go by and my memory has failed....;-)

Any ideas before I pack it away?

NM, signature is older than I thought.

I usually like these puzzles but after googling possibilities for an hour I'm nowhere. Anything else you can remember? Chicago player? Minor/Major leaguer? Old/young?

Wow! You didn't have to do that! There are only a few more things. It is one of the newer non-league balls (which I think started in 2000). I moved to Chicago in 1999. Its Major league for sure. Only two shows I went to then was one in the Chicago area (I remember I had Ryne Sandberg sign for me then) and 2002 all star game show in Milwaukee. (I remember I had Bob Horner sign then). So, it has to be one of those shows. Now that you sparked my memory I'll see if I can find adds of who signed at those shows.

I am going to make a pretty sure good guess. 2002 National Sports Collector Convention at Donald E. Stevens Convention Center in Rosemont (Chicago). But there were 89 players past and current (then) signing. I can't find a list of them though. I remember standing in long lines to get autographs at that show.

One more tidbit I am finding online. I am pretty sure I also got Dwight Gooden and Milt Pappas at that show. Maybe Reggie Jackson (not sure about that one).
I bet the listing may have been in Sports Collectors Digest (which I didn't keep from that long ago).
