Official size of the baseball
In a story on the MLB site the final paragraphs stunned me.
What the story was about is irrelevant, but look at the last few lines:
On Friday night in Vero Beach in his first Minor League start, the 24-year-old southpaw had just one complaint: Getting accustomed to the smaller Minor League ball.
Kazmir is now done with the Florida State League. He will trek north to Triple-A Durham for his final start, a Monday night home game against Richmond, leaving him to ponder another question.
"Will I use a Major League or Minor League ball up there? I don't even know," he wondered, smiling after a long, bewildering Wednesday.
=========
Are there really different size baseballs in minor leagues from the Majors?
