Awesome game last night!
The pitchers are saying that the baseballs are juiced and have been all season long. This was a record homerun year and the postseason and Series have seen record homeruns. And really, just from watching on TV, the balls are exploding off the bats with extra velocity in my opinion. So maybe the balls are juiced.
By juiced, they are probably made a little too tight at the manufacturers. Every so often that is tested and adjusted. In the past seasons with record homeruns have been tied to the balls made with a just ever so slightly tighter winding of the interior string. A looser winding and the balls may be hard to hit deep.
I know major league baseballs used to be manufactured in Haiti. Is that still the case?
