I work with some awesome people. Their generosity is off the charts sometimes.

One of my co-workers, who collects game-used San Francisco 49ers equipment, often brings items to me to look at and help photo match. 

Well, the other day he showed up and left a baseball on my desk.  The ball was signed by players of the Oakland Athletics and Kansas City Royals. The first signature I could read was an obvious one, Rickey Henderson.

The co-worker then told me the ball was for me, a gift, but he wanted to know who had signed the ball.  He acquired it himself in the early 1980s but had forgotten exactly who signed it.

Well, I pinned the ball down to 1982, when my co-worker was 15. Here are the signatures.
