The swinging balls are just animated props, and only certain frames of the animation trigger the command to make Abe fall/die.

Sounds like the way FMV games worked, I always found it hard to tell exactly when the "Death trigger" would be there, I simply rolled when the ball was as far away into the background as it could be, but that wouldn't always work, because you had to watch out for bats as well.
