Play Ball
ITEM #: 65772
The Play Ball Story
Engineered for the perfect pitches,
Finished with 108 stitches,
Forming a perfect pair of figure-eights,
All essentials to the baseball’s shape.
Entering the ballpark gates,
Scents of hot dogs, pretzels, and popcorn fill the place,
Fun and action for nine innings await,
With a “wave” and a seventh-inning stretch,
All part of the game Americans love so much.
The ballpark welcomes one and all.
Anticipation soars until the umpire’s last call.
Be it a fastball, curveball, slider, sinker, or splitter,
Every pitch is designed to elude the hitter.
So when the bases are loaded,
And the batter taps the mat, adjusts his hat,
Ready at bat.
The dugout stands, the catcher readies his mitt,
The pitcher preps on the mound;
The crowd hushes—the stadium has no sound.
The pitcher throws, the batter swings for the win,
Betting on no whiffs, or slips,
Aiming for a base or home run hit.
Dreams of sliding into home plate,
like one of the many baseball greats.
Play Ball turns America’s favorite pastime into a sparkling 4-inch glass keepsake. The glossy red ball is covered with white baseballs detailed in red stitching, silver glitter edging, scattered stars and tiny metallic accents. Mouth blown, hand painted and glittered in Poland, the ornament is sterling silver lined and finished with JingleNog’s signature attention to detail.

Hang Play Ball where its bold red, white and blue design can be seen from across the tree, or make it part of a sports-themed ornament collection. It also makes a meaningful keepsake for baseball players, coaches, fans and families whose favorite memories were made at the ballpark.
Look closely at the baseballs: each one has individually detailed red stitching surrounded by sparkling silver glitter. Dimensional outlined stars, crisp white stars and tiny metallic silver accents fill the glossy red background, giving this ball ornament layers of detail and plenty to discover up close.
Let the bright red background pop among classic red and white Christmas ornaments, or group Play Ball with sports keepsakes collected through the years. Its baseballs are large enough to read clearly on the tree, while the red, white and blue palette works easily with traditional holiday colors.
