Quote:

Manfred promised from the podium, that was all over: "Every baseball that's in use in '22 was produced under the new manufacturing process" – meaning the deader ball – "and in fact, the process has resulted in a more consistent baseball."

But according to a new analysis of more than 200 balls used in games during the 2022 season that Meredith Wills, a Society for American Baseball Research award-winning astrophysicist, conducted, that's not true. Major League Baseball did not settle into using a single, more consistent ball last season, Wills' research suggests: the league used three.

I'm no Manfred fan unless it's Manfred Mann and his Earth Band. He always came across as a phony to me. I don't trust or believe anything he says.
