How do you recycle a baseball?

Answer 1

Many MLB teams use a "ball recycler" or "ball renewing" machine. There are a few manufacturers of these machines around...but at $1,500 to $2,000 per unit, they are usually too expensive for an individual to purchase.

A key word search came up with a web site www.ballrecycler.com that has a machine that "turns used baseballs into pearls". They do this by loading a small drum with 20 to 30 baseballs and a dry cleaning agent inside, then rotating the drum similar to a rock polishing machine. It's quite effective, and it looks like the baseballs are renewed to about 90 to 95% of their original condition.

Your local Baseball league probably has a ball recycler in the snack shop. Many colleges and batting cages also have baseball renewing machines like that above.

Hope that helps!
