The ball joint connects the control arm to the swivel/hub assembly. If I remember correctly, you pry between the control arm and the pinch joint that connects the upper part of the ball joint to the swivel.
If there is any visible movement at all, its bad. I would replace both if one is bad, they are cheap.
The R and R procedure is pretty easy, unless the upper part of the ball joint is rusted in the pinch joint. I had to wedge a chisel into the pinch joint to open it up and then hammer on the control arm to get it loose.
