From Reservoir Dogs :
(talking about tipping and the fact that tips are taxed)
Mr Pink: (...) Look, if you show me a piece of paper that says the government shouldn't do that, I'll sign it, put it to a vote, I'll vote for it, but what I won't do is play ball. (...)
Meaning he will not do like everyone and start tipping waitresses.

In a relationship in which one partner is polyamorous, the act of the monogamous partner allowing the poly partner to occasionally have sexual relations with other partners. Similar to a “hall pass,” it shows respect, trust, and mutual understanding between the partners. Those who refuse to play ball are frankly immature, possessive, controlling, and often abusive to their partners.
I thought I’d never get to hook up with Bella, but luckily her boyfriend decided to play ball. He’s such a cool and understanding guy.

When one wants to woo you, they will suggest to play ball. Next thing you know you are their universe verse verse verse verse. Mark Lee coined this word on the historic date December 14th 2021 that changed the arrangement of the universe and shook the world. Word.

A term basically saying that it's alright to at least be attracted to a person as long as they've gone past puberty. Obviously "grass" refers to their "bush" or pubic hair. Would typically be applied to, for instance, a girl maybe 13 years old and up. Can often be used in reference to actual sex (intercourse) but not necessarily.
Man#1: What's the youngest chick you would ever be into at your age? I mean what do you think is "okay" to fantasize about?
Man#2: Hey man. Like my coach always said: if there's grass on the field, it's time to play ball.

If an underage girl has reached puberty, she may be considered appropriate for sexual activity. The reference to "grass on the field" is a metaphor for pubic hair, meaning that any girl who has reached sexual maturity, may be an appropriate sex partner.
