yellow ball

Citrus-colored orb toy

A yellow ball is simply a ball that is yellow—a tennis ball, a softball, a beach ball, a stress ball.

The phrase has no special idiomatic meaning beyond its literal components: The dog chased the yellow ball across the yard.

In some sports, yellow balls are standard equipment, making the color functionally significant rather than merely descriptive.
