Here is a picture of how never to tie off to a Mooring ball. If a big wind came up the boat will tack back and forth and saw right threw the rope. You have no redundancy. If you want to tie directly to the pennant loop you need a different line from each cleat. That will prevent sawing and gives you a backup should one line break.
