    Somebody was telling me it's smaller over there, which I don't believe, but just to be sure.
    Thanks

    I highly doubt they are smaller. They are the same size. If that was the case there would be more news when a player comes from Japan regarding them adjusting to a new size ball.

    Think about how much it would play into a pitcher that is coming from overseas.

    I'm calling BS on that one...the ball is the same size.

    How can it be smaller in Japan??? Does it cross some MAGICAL LINE when you take it from here in the states to Japan??? DUH. How can a baseball get smaller if it's in a different country??? That's ridiculous. :rolleyes:

    I don't know, footballs are rounder in other countries.

    Maybe it has something to do with testicle size?

    Are you using "baseball" as a euphemism for penis?

    It's not an euphemism, I just went curious because I thought it was the same everywhere.
    Thanks all for your answers.
