If you cut a baseball in half you would see that there would be several layers of rubber. the core of a baseball is called a pill. A special machine rapes the core around with a lot of layers of yarn. Once the pill is tightly covered around with yarn, the baseball is covered in a layer of rubber cement. Then covered with two pieces of white cowhide. Then hand stitched using 88 inches of red cotton. Once they are done they are tested. Like they must be 9 inches but no more then 9.25. They have to weight at least five ounces no more then 5.25 ounces. That's how baseball's are made.
