Philadelphia ball factory denies change in baseball construction
Thomas Shibe of a major league ball supplier says the baseballs used this year are identical to those of prior seasons. He argues the rise in home runs stems from the elimination of all freak deliveries and the near-death of the spitball, enabling batters to hit more solidly. He notes no alterations to yarn, cork center, size, weight, or horsehide. Lake Trinidad is estimated to contain 6,000,000 tons of asphalt.
