In my opinion, it's a clubhouse signature. The slant is inconsistent with other Maris examples I've seen, but it's also hard to tell because it's a littled smudged.

The signature looks legit to me. Please keep in mind that 1959 was only Maris' 3rd season in the majors and had yet to reach any national star status (not to mention that that KC was not exactly a high profile team either). IMO there would little need for Maris to have clubhouse assistance with team signed baseballs.
