A baseball is one that is used to practice baseball. Its circumference is 9 inches (22.5 centimeters) and not greater than 9 1/4 inches (24 centimeters), and its weight is 5 ounces (142 g) and not more than 5. The ball is cork, rubber, or a mixture of both, and can sometimes consist of several layers. Around it are wound several layers of thread, first a thicker one that gives volume to the center, and it is finished with a thinner cotton yarn, this allows it to be smoother before being sewn. Finally 2 leather covers are placed in the shape of 8, each one has 108 perforations around it, which will allow it to be sewn to perfection, this seam is made with a red thread, either nylon or polyester. The rolled seam is flatter and offers less wind resistance. This is the type of stitching used for balls in Major League Baseball and is ideal for play.
