Oil in Baseballs Sparks Umpire Complaint
Chicago June 14. Manufacturers say properly treated yarn causes oily baseballs. Carl Hubbard, veteran AL umpire, says one to a dozen balls per game go out due to oil soaking through the outer hide. He notes about 10 wild pitches in a recent eastern game before oily balls were replaced. Also mentions initial belief that synthetic rubber cores caused the issue. Russell Howe, son of Clarence M Howe, is undergoing boat training at the San Diego naval base.
