Yeah, that's one of the areas that my 6" foam ball is really good for. Trouble with a softball is it has seams ... ow. That foam ball is the best self-care tool I own because it's so versatile and portable. Big enough to hit nearly any area that I'd normally use a roller on, small enough to fit in a suitcase, just the right size for intermediate-sized muscle attachment areas like the anterior shoulder and the hamstrings.
