trucks 0 Report post Posted July 26, 2006 Yeah Ted Lilly and Ted Williams were the first two players I thought of too. Williams was #9 and Lilly wears #31 for the Jays, dont know what he wore previously. I googled both their autographs though and they dont match the autograph on the ball. You never know, it could be a joke someone pulled, signed a ball and threw it in your pool or maybe a minor leaguer or something. I dont know, cant think of any more Teds in the majors past or present but Im sure theyre out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
