Help with some Early 80's / Late 70s Dodgers Balls

Many of these are too faint for my eyes. Here are some, however:

Ball 1, Panel 1:

#2: A messier Rick Honeycutt. He had a few different versions which he used interchangeably--apparently, sometimes even on the same item! His presence would place the ball at 1983 if you had already narrowed it down to 1981-83.

Panel 2, #3 is not Bill Russell, but rather Ron Perranoski

Ball 2:

Panel 4, #4 is not Dave Stewart, but rather Al Oliver. This also isolates the ball to the 1985 season.

Panel 4, bottom doesn't appear to be Garvey and it's a bit too obscured to make out.

I believe I agree with any others where you've added "??".

Thank you! Isolating to '85 with Al Oliver helps with a few others; yea wasn't entirely sure on the Garvey, was grasping at straws, given the assumed years - but seems there's now a new roster to look through.

EDIT: I think with your help, isolating to '85, I have figured it out - leaving above in case I'm wrong.

THANK YOU for the assistance!

Ball #1 - Panel 2 is not Fernando Valenzuela, it is Mariano Duncan.
