If the damage was in fact caused by contact with the ball, then there should be no foul on blue based on this Q&A:

Q. G28 -If a ROBOT is in possession of a ball, and the method of possession places the ball outside the bumper perimeter, but above the bumpers, and said ball contacts an opposing ROBOT (inside its frame perimeter), is that considered contact inside the frame perimeter? (and thus a potential penalty)

A. G28 refers to contact by the ROBOT, not the BALL.
