Presuming authenticity, values can range dramatically. Key factors are: the placement and clarity of Ruth's signature (the bigger and bolder, the better), the type of ball (is it an "Official American League" ball?), and the all-important overall condition of the ball and signature. The provenance; the who, what, when and where of a signed ball's history, may also add value if it's documented. If genuine, your ball would be worth $1500 to as much as $7500, depending on all the aforementioned factors. An absolutely pristine signed Ruth ball could be worth $10,000-12,000.

Once a collectible baseball card is signed the value of the card dramatically goes down. The card then becomes an Item to display the signature, and the bulk of the value relies on the value of the player that signed the card, and how well the card displays the signature.
Collectible items could add value to the price of a signature but not always. As in the case of a baseball card, generally collectors of baseball cards would rather have a baseball card without the signature, and a collector of signatures will not always pay extra for the "collectible" baseball card. This is why it is not a good idea to have an expensive baseball card signed. You could devalue the price of the card, and get less for it.
