This is a Cy Young Award auto by Cliff Lee on an MLB ball my Uncle got me for Christmas one year. He got it at a charity auction in Boston. He didn’t win Cy Young yet at the time but I knew he was a good lefty and loved the ball. Not sure how the auto is fading since it’s just been in storage but still visible but I know there’s some sort of chemical answer.
