Picking up a soft ball using dual arm

edit

I am trying to pick a soft ball using two arms and then throw it. I am using a soft ball because I want to be able to throw the ball even when it is slightly crushed by the fingers.

But when I try to run it using gazebo, the ball jumps around on contact. I tried making the object soft using different values of kp, kd, soft_cfm and soft_erp with no success. Any suggestions on how I can achieve this.
