1. The act of ball protection in any sport, ie. held tightly so cannot be knocked loose in football, handled, dribbled and passed so can't be stolen in basketball, held tightly in hand or glove in baseball - or protection of ball in any other applicable sport as originally specified on Fitz and Brooks afternoon sportstalk radio.
2. In non sports modes it's protection against damage due to impacts from feet, knuckles, whips, chains, canes, sticks, stones, elbows, sharp objects or other threatening things when aforementioned balls are hanging unprotected between the legs!
1. O'Sullivan of the Forty Niners needs to practice and be more expert in ball security.
2. Most MLB ballplayers wear a cup to enhance ball security.
