Dawn is one of the best grease/oil cutters intended for use in hot tap water.
 
Save Greased Lightning for the garage.

I don't cover the holes. I just make sure everything's dry (usually a couple of days) before I use the ball again.

really hot water will loosen most glues. I suppose you could jam something in the holes to prevent the water from  getting into the filler and the cores. Blue Tack might work.

I'd be inclined to just let it air out, holes facing up for a few days to allow the water to evaporate.
