well regardless of what mainieri thinks, the laws of physics disagree with him. lower seams means less drag. less drag means balls will travel further.


he said it won't have that much effect....not that it will have zero effect

guys much more qualified than mainieri have done studies on the effects seams have. basically a ball that travels 375 ft will travel 400 ft. Now, you be the judge on how significant that is. In most people's eyes, that's pretty significant.
