Here is a good link about the new ball and what some pitchers think.
Sorry I don't know how to make it short on my mobile
"But the NCAA will not simply switch to the minor league ball, which has a livelier core than the college ball (though it is less lively than the big league ball). Keilitz said Friday that 71 percent of respondents in his survey said they want to switch to the livelier pro ball, but Farrell said the D-I Baseball Committee does not have the authority to make that change. The rules committee must approve a change to the core, and it will consider the matter next summer. In the meantime, more study is needed about the impact of any change to the core. Don’t expect any change to the core until the committee has a chance to see how the change to the flat-seamed ball affects the game, starting in 2015."
typical NCAA. they are simply incapable of making a change that's needed without overstudying and fretting and f##king it up.
just change to the minor league ball. it works in the minors. it'll work in college. geezus h. kryste.
