Product Overview
Introduced in 2002, the JUGS Pearl Baseball combines a full grain leather cover, cushion-corked center, and wool winding to deliver a realistic feel in the hand and off the bat. Its Kevlar NeverBreak Seam technology extends the ball's lifespan significantly compared to other baseball brands, particularly when used with pitching machines.
As the first leather baseball designed specifically for pitching machines, the JUGS Pearl Baseball maintains high-performance play and minimizes wear when used with JUGS Baseball Pitching Machines. It is suitable for both indoor and outdoor play across all skill levels, from backyard players to professionals.
Pearl Baseballs are sold by the dozen, with a 15% discount and free shipping automatically applied on orders of 20 dozen or more. JUGS backs the product with a 1-Year Guarantee covering normal wear and factory defects.
