Average number of pitches per game is 275, and the average lifespan of a ball is 7 pitches, so the average # of balls used per mlb game is 39.

No exact answer considering the following reasons---Homeruns---Foul Balls into the stands---The bat boys fielding ground balls and throwing them into the stands---How many times the Home Plate Umpire throws 1 out of the game--How many times the pitchers ask for a new ball and so on and so on........ A rough estimate is between 45- 80 per game.
