Niekro played from 1964 to 1987 for the Braves, Yankees, Indians and Blue Jays and had a career record of 318-274, 3,342 strikeouts and an ERA of 3.35. He was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1997 (his 5th ballot).
I mailed to Niekro on August 29 and got the ball back on September 9, making him an 11-day TAT (but this might have been shorter had I not sent so close to the Labor Day holiday). He signs for a fee of $20 for baseballs and inscribed my ball with his HOF induction year. Pretty nice signature, too.
