Quote:Yes, and if the other gauge was used before the game then the pressures were lower than the ideal gas law predicts. Walt Anderson remembered using the other gauge, but admitted that he wasn't sure about that.


In one case we have the balls falling within spec if the gauge the ref remembered using was the one he used.

In the other case the balls were about 0.3-0.4 psi below spec. 0.35 psi is about 3% of the initial pressure.


The report
drew its conclusions assuming that the other gauge was used. This was based on what???

To me it's much more likely that the one which implies no problem was the one used before the game. It's more likely because that's the gauge Walt remembered using. I also find it unlikely that people would cheat just to remove a measly 3% of the pressure.
