Image not useful edit

Is the current image (File:Baseball.jpg) with or without the rub? Unless we know that, the image is useless. The topic is the rub, and by extension how it affects the ball--the topic isn't "baseballs". A useful image would be a pre- and post-rubbed ball--otherwise it does not illustrate anything about the actual topic of this article. Another useful image would be of the mud itself.
