## Caption

Do you think this was a random number? 

Every baseball has exactly 108 stitches stitched by hand, one by one. It's not tradition. It's aerodynamics. 

And without that specific number, the curveball, the slider and the fastball wouldn't exist the way they do. ⚾

Drop it in the comments: did you know this?
