The USA. Rawlings makes the balls in Wyomissing, PA and Orlando, FL. And the "Baseball mud" which is rubbed on about 6-12 dozen balls(on EVERY ball) before EVERY game by the umpire, is secret mud that comes from New Jersey at a hidden location along the Delaware river(NJ side of it) & is only known by one man.

Costa Rica.

Rawlings, the sole source of baseballs to MLB, the minor leagues, and College Baseball manufactures the baseballs at it's plant in Turrialba, Costa Rica. They import the cores, yarn, and cowhide from companies in the United States, manufacture the balls, and ship them back to the United States. They also manufacture baseballs in Costa Rica that they sell all over the world.

Rawlings moved their plant to Costa Rica in 1987 to take advantage of Costa Rica's "free trade zone", an area of the country where tariffs and taxes are eliminated in an effort to get large, global companies to move some of their manufacturing to the country. These "free trade zones" are generally set up in poorer areas of the country in an effort to stimulate the economy and give folks jobs, albeit, at a relatively low wage.

Other global companies such as Motorola, Intel, and Panasonic have manufacturing plants in the free trade zone of Costa Rica.
