I appreciate it’s got seams like a baseball. Makes it easier to decide if you’re gonna whip it at someone like a 2 seam or 4 seam fastball.

These are for employees of store to throw at the thief

“Called bohan yo kara boru (anti crime colour balls), they are designed to be used by employees in the event of a robbery. The balls are filled with brightly coloured orange paint. Should the shop fall foul to the demands of an opportunist thief, clerks are supposed to lob the ball at the perpetrator, marking him in order to aid the police when giving chase.”
