Dark leather was used for the cover of the earliest baseballs because it was readily available and easier for the players to see when the ball was hit in the air on a clear day. In fact, famed Baseball writer Henry Chadwick advocated using a dark red leather base ball as late as 1875 and stated so in the 1875 DeWitt's Baseball Umpire's Guide. White baseballs were later introduced (1861) because most ball fields at the time had heavily wooded area back drops, and it was easier to see the white ball. American League baseballs with the Reach Trademark had Red & Blue stitching, and the National League Spalding Trademark baseballs had Black & Red stitching up until about 1934/35 when in both league started using only red stitching. Why red stitching was used instead of another color could be just by chance.

Why does Santa wear red cloths?
The history of this question goes to 1910, however, lots of countries drew and had Santa in various colors of clothing. Coca Cola drew Santa in red and white (because Coca Cola's Colors are red and white) on their cans for the first time. then people decided to go with red and white for Santa's clothes, and its been like that ever since. i think its cuz candycanes (Christmas candy) , red & white mints (Christmas candy), and most candys from the holidays are red & white, so big ol' Santy Claws decided 2 go with red & white.
