This is a brand new, never used official Major league baseball. It is signed on the sweet spot by former Angels and Pirates player, Brandon Wood. The ball is in pristine condition. It is pearly white with no evidence of rips, tears, abrasions, toning, or discoloration. The Autograph is crisp and has no evidence of bleeding or smudges. It is right on the sweet spot. Please refer to the photos. Brandon signed this in my presence several years ago, so I personally guarantee the authenticity of this autograph.
