ProNine rates it a great practice ball for college and high school, and it earns that on turf, in cages, and in weather that ruins leather dozens. Sold by the dozen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGame-Ball Interior, Weatherproof Shell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cushioned cork center is what separates the X5 from budget composites: it is the same center class found in quality game baseballs, so hitters get honest feedback and pitchers get a ball that feels right.
