    1. Ben must return the baseball to the owner immediately as it is not an object of great value.

    Explanation:

    The owner of the baseball is still the rightful owner because he was the one who purchased the item. He does not lose ownership of the baseball simply because it landed on Ben's apartment.

    Ben has not right to claim ownership of the baseball, and he must return it to the owner immediately.
