You know the dimples on a golf ball impact how the ball travels, right? So does the stitches on the balls. Plus you also have muscle memory. A ball player learns how to grip the soft ball and masters it. If that ball had different stitches each time he picked it up, he/she would not be able to control it properly. And likewise the batter would not know how to hit it properly either. A consistency is needed for the sport to be consistent.
