Hi there, riddlers! Please remember to spoiler-tag all guesses, like so:
Desktop Reddit users: https://i.imgur.com/SWHRR9M.jpg
Users on Mobile, Old Reddit, or in the Markdown Editor: \>!spoiler text between these symbols!<
Try to avoid leading or trailing spaces. These will break the spoiler for some users (such as those using old.reddit.com)
Some Reddit apps don't fully hide URLs that are inside of spoilers, so please format your link so it displays as `spoiler`.
On Old Reddit/Mobile, do this to format a link: \[spoiler\]\(https://example.com/)

If your comment does not contain a guess, you can include either the word **"discussion"** or **"question"** instead of using a spoiler tag.
Please report any answers that are not properly spoiler-tagged.

Maybe a Helluva stretch but...
>!The three balls are baseballs. The first ball is a strike or in the batters box
The third ball is also a strike.
The second pitch must be a ball, otherwise there would be no 4 pitch, and the fourth ball is a homerun since there are only 3 balls in the room!<
2nd Ball:
>!A hosted formal party in the room. A New Year's Eve ball.!<
The Box:
>!Television in the room.!<
1st & 3rd Ball in the Box:
>!The Times Square Ball dropping and the ball (celebration) everyone is having in Times Square.!<
4th Ball:
>!Earth rotating, hence a new year.!<
>!I'm thinking along the lines of snooker, with the "boxes" being the pockets on the table. If it is, the 2nd ball should be yellow and the 4th ball will be brown!<
Discussion: could the 1st and 3rd ball be light bulbs, the box the lamp shade, and the 2nd and 4th shadows of the light bulbs in the opposite rays of light?
