I remember those days â A new baseball costs 25 cents. No one had that much so when the stitching started falling apart, dad always had some electrician tape we could use. (It only cost a nickle a roll) If you did it âjust rightâ you got another couple months out of it. And by that time we would have collected enough bottles to âtrade-inâ to buy another new âofficialâ baseball. A few years later along came Little League baseball and things were never the same. Always throw in some organizing adults and some âgeniusâ business men and soon you have soccer momâs with not enough time on their hands and dadâs who live in a fantasy world. js

When I was a kid I thought thatâs how balls came. Also bats were fixed with electrical tape.
