It is the very first ball, used in the easy levels.
Several of the matches were played at night using a white ball.
They used a ball which had been given to them by the crew of an English ship some weeks ago.
But some players came into the Open after having used different balls at other tournaments.
To play this game, people use bats and small balls.
At the time, teams did not use clean, new balls.
But when it turned out to be a ball used earlier in the game, the sale was canceled.
The balls used for the final match were gold, rather than the normal white.
Nowhere in major league rules does it say the winning team gets the ball used for the final out.
The first two use a large (35 cm) soft ball.
