Mmmm... more like a tennis ball in a tight lattice of basketballs pressed against each other, with the elastic constrictions of the lattice (the passages between the interstitial sites and ultimately towards the surface) smaller than the ball. The ball, pushed from behind by other balls, squirts out.
