The home team is responsible for supplying twelve dozen (144) balls to the umpire for each game. Before the game, the umpire will usually treat about five dozen of those with a special mud substance to provide better grip, and will do more if warranted during the game.

The umpire behind home plate is given six dozen baseballs for a professional game. However, it is not uncommon that the game requires more than that amount.

the average lifespan for a baseball in a pro game is about 7 pitches so you do the math.
