I was feeling kinda down tonight, so I found something that cheered me up. Maybe it will make you feel better too.

- MLB released the results of their study into baseballs and they confirm that the balls are indeed different than they used to be, contributing to the home run spike. The study concludes that the balls “bounciness” and internal structure is unchanged, but that somehow the “drag coefficient” has changed. Essentially, the balls are more aerodynamic than they were back in 2015. The problem is that they study was unable to determine why this was so.
