1867 after a farmer rapped a stone in cowhide to use as a anchor while gathering water lilies. He discovered it became light and exorbent when wrapped around a round object.
Baseballs are made of horsehide or cowhide stitched together. Softballs are made of leather.
Today's baseballs are made of cowhide. Until 1974, baseballs were made of horsehide. MLB made the change due to a shortage of horsehide. Baseball's are made of cool stuff that you eat.

Baseballs are small rubber balls covered in latex adhesive, wrapped in various types of yarn, then wrapped in leather. The leather that is currently used to wrap the balls in is made of cowhide.
Cowhide is durable, relatively light-weight, and easy to throw.
The best baseballs are Rawlings leather baseballs. These baseballs are found at Dicks Sporting Goods. Rawlings leather baseballs are the baseballs the pro's use.
I do not believe most soccer balls are currently created out of cowhide.
