The most preferred baseball to have a player sign would be an Official Major League baseball from the League the player played in, that was used during the ball players playing days. The older baseballs could be dated by the signature of the League President stamped on the ball. For example: Willie Mays played from 1951-1973. If you were planning to acquire a Willie Mays signature you would try to find a 1951-1969 Warren Giles Official national League Baseball. The baseball alone would cost you about $200. but it would also add value to your signature. You can also opt to go with a 1970-1986 Charles Feeny Official National League Baseball which was used at the end of Mays' career. This ball would cost you about $60. Your next choice should be an Official Major League baseball made after his playing days. This would be acceptable as well. The same would be for team signed baseballs. A team from the 1980s, a 1980s baseball. (same League) You could find these baseballs on eBay. Just make sure that the ball you purchase is clean, and like new. I would not use a plain baseball or team logo baseball. It would be cheaper but then so would the value of your autograph. I will leave a link to an Official Baseball Dating & price Guide. This will help you identify the baseball you are looking for and estimated value.

The sport baseball typically uses the phrase 'play ball'. The phrase 'play ball' is widely used in anything from little league baseball to major league baseball.
The problem with "game used" baseballs is proving that the baseball was used during a Major league game. The baseball could have been used in a sandlot game. There is just no way of proving it. Without the proper provenance, a letter from a league, team official or a player stating so the baseball will be valued as a used vintage baseball, based on condition. A letter from a fan at the game would not hold much weight if any. A Warren Giles National League baseball (the type ball used in 1957) is worth about $200.+ in near/mint (white) condition. Your baseball would be valued from this price working down depending on the condition of the ball.

A ball player is a person who plays any form of ball game or sport, such as baseball or basketball.
