First off is it an inline on a side lock? How did the ball get stuck? If you forgot to put powder down you can remove the nipple and put a few grains of...
Or if you double wadded it and it is stuck part way down the barrel make up a ball puller that will go either all the way through the ball or most of the way,...
I'd recommend plugging the touch hole, stand the barrel up, fill it with oil, put it in a closet and forget about it for a week. Pull it out and use the ball...
