It's one seam, holding together 2 pieces of leather. There are 108 stitches on a standard MLB baseball.

yeah there is only one seam. if your wondering about a 2 seam and a 4 seam fastball it is talking about how many places on the seam you are throwing with. 2 seam is where your fingers are paralell with the laces. a 4 seam fastball is where your fingers lay across the laces making an "H" with a nother line. a 2 seam from a right hander tends to brake in and a little down to a right handed batter. a 4 seam tend to have no break and has more velocity than a 2 seam.

There is one seam. It goes all around the ball.
There are 108 stitches in the ball, which means there are 108 needle holes in each of the two pieces of leather, for a total of 216 needle holes in a baseball. 216= 6X6X6.

1 seam and 108 double stitches or 216 stiches with red waxed thread. The end stiches are hand sewn and hidden.
