Ball not to blame for home run surge say researchers
An engineering study for Major League Baseball found the baseball itself is not responsible for rising homers this season. Researchers tested balls from 1999 and 2000, examined cork cores and covers, and measured bounce, friction, and aging. They concluded the 2000 baseballs are essentially the same as 1999s, with batted ball distances within acceptable variation.
