Leaks through the brass wall.

Hello, I have had this valve for about two seasons, feed my outside faucet and turn it off for the winter. I just opened the valve and there is a leak. The valve is not frozen because it is two feet in the heated basement of the home. The leak is NOT at the seams but through the brass wall. The ball's synthetic material appears to seal the leak in the closed position, but when rotated to the on position it allows water to flow through a crack in the brass wall. Must be a manufacturing defect.
