Is there any particular reason why certain sports balls are shaped the way they are?

Why is a soccer ball shaped like a buckyball?
Why do volleyballs have the specific pattern of lines on them?
Why do baseballs have the specific shape in which the threads are sewn?
Why are basketballs covered in small raised dots, and is there a purpose for their distinctive line pattern?
I know golf balls have indentations because it makes them more aerodynamic. Do the other shapes have similar reasoning behind them, or is it just tradition?
