Soil to Aid the Pitchers
New York reports National League umpires receive moist dirt before each game to rub into balls. President Heydler says the practice increases pitcher effectiveness and no other methods will be used. Rosin and chalk substances are not officially adopted. Some umpires have used soil from certain diamonds to dull ball gloss, but the practice is to end as pitchers take longer to reach top form in cool weather.
