Fun Fact

Vibrant Red Seams: Dating back to the 19th century, these traditional stitches aren't just for looks. They create aerodynamic drag, allowing pitchers to throw curving pitches.

2h ago

Glossary
seams (noun)
The raised lines of stitching that hold a baseball's leather cover together. These ridges disrupt the surrounding airflow to create tiny pockets of turbulent air, which reduces drag and helps the ball fly much farther. Without them, your favorite pitcher's curveball wouldn't curve, and home runs would be incredibly hard to hit!
