Major League Baseball is looking into the introduction of sticker baseballs into the game.

MLB has commissioned Rawlings to manufacturer a baseball with natural tact on the leather, according to a report. This would eliminate the need for pitchers to use a foreign substance, like pine tar or sun screen, to improve their grip.

"MLB has commissioned Rawlings, its official manufacturer, to produce a ball with natural tack on the leather in hopes of eliminating the need for pine tar, sunscreen and rosin, or any other foreign substances whose use in recent years has blurred the legal-illegal line, sources familiar with the project told Yahoo Sports," writes Jeff Passan.

"The balls also would not need a pregame polish of Lena Blackburne Rubbing Mud, the New Jersey-harvested muck that for decades has taken the sheen off the pearls that come out of the box."
