When was the last regular season major league baseball game that ended in a tie?
It actually happens surprisingly regularly, you usually just don't hear about it because it often happens at the end of the season, between two teams who aren't going to the playoffs. I'm not positive this is the most recent one (although I can't find a more recent one), but here is an example of a tie from 2005:

How do you get a Roger Clemens autographed baseball authenticated?
Signatures that have been properly authenticated will sell at a higher price than not. Two of the top, and most trusted authenticators are PSA/DNA, and James Spence Authentic (JSA). Collectors will pay more for signatures authenticated by either one. It may sound odd but in some cases PSA/DNA, and JSA authenticated signatures may sell higher than a Letter of authenticity from an unknown or less trusted authenticator that witnessed the signing even though PSA/DNA, and JSA did not. It's just a matter of collectors trust, and collectors will pay more for it. I would not recomend anyone else. I will leave links for the sites on this page. Check their Show Schedule to see when they will be in the area that you live. They also do business through the mail. Keep in mind that if you do not have a letter of authenticity from a respectible company you could land up with half the market value when you sell the ball.
very, u have to have good balance. it also takes months to strengthen your arm and then it takes months to get to the point where you can throw consistant strikes. then you have to learn new pitches, with new grips, releae poins and arm motions

What are the physics behind a curveball?
Not entirely sure what a curveball is, but the physics behind it is quite simple.
When a pitcher throws the ball, it goes straight, but gravity is also pulling it down.
Since it is goiig forward, it creates a downward curve.
To make it go left or right, just position yourself on the opposite side of the position you choose.
