| Discovery Notes | This phage was adopted from Dr. Lee-Soety. The soil was unearthed on September 10, 2025, by a Garden bed/traffic circle in the Hope Church parking lot/driveway. The depth dug was 13 cm. The weather conditions were 20.1 degrees Celsius, partly cloudy, with sun breaking through, and a thunderstorm occurred earlier in the day. The soil was mulchy and moist. |
| Naming Notes | The name "Baller" is derived from my desire for my phage to be legendary. It is a manifestation of my hopes and dreams for this lab. |
