MrUmpire,
No, you were perfectly clear. My response was intended to support your assertion.
A friend of mine who is "in the business" informed me that FED does absolutely nothing to verify that the baseballs conform to spec. They do, however, require that the vendor states that the balls conform to the specs when they apply for permission to use the "mark".
