Owe a ball (v.) – - Billiards Dictionary
Owe a ball (v.) –
This is when a player has scratched and the foul in one pocket calls for them to spot a ball, but not able to be spotted at the time. In this case a coin is usually placed on the side of the table to keep tabs.

Oh man, I guess I’ll just have to owe you a ball.
