Deconstructed Baseball #WordlessWednesday

When I saw this lying on the grass in our local park, I thought it was a strange kind of sandal.

But my spouse knew exactly what it was.  It's part of the inside of a baseball.   The stitching should have given it away.  My spouse called it a "deconstructed baseball".

And I found how a baseball is made is pretty fascinating.  You may, too.

Joining up with Sandee at Comedy Plus for #WordlessWednesday.

  5. I've heard that some hitters can knock the cover off the ball, I've just never witnessed it for myself. Have a blessed week.

  12. Having 2 boys yep, I knew it was a baseball. Boys are hard on everything, but anything my eldest boy had he wore out, and my youngest boy.... well,.... he didn't care much. If the ball got dirty he wanted a new one or that he lost it. One day I told him.. oh gee, mama doesn't have the money & he went and hunted down his ball. hahaha KIDS... gotta luv em'!!!

  13. 'Someone' went to town on that poor baseball! Our Pandy used to make quick work of one. We had to stop giving them to her!
    I loved that video! I love 'How It's Made' videos! I wondered how they could machine stitch a baseball. I got my answer. They don't!!!
    (I now have a lot more respect for the lowly baseball!)
