Explanation:

[STC009943]. David Mullany, a former semi-pro pitcher, was present in the backyard of his home in 1953 to watch his son and his friends play baseball. The children played baseball with a broomstick and a golf ball that had holes punched in it rather than a bat and a baseball. Mullany was motivated to design a plastic ball that would make it simpler for children to throw curve balls when he observed how difficult it was for them to do so. The ball that emerged as a result was given the moniker “Wiffle Ball” from the local slang term for being out of the game.
