so to answer your question, no, it is not going to be penalized unless the trackball is being continually bulldozed therefore being defined as herding.

I think that akash got it right here. If you are possessing a trackball and you happen to hit another ball, it will not be considered herding IMO.
It looked to me that the initial question was about bulldozing a ball. When you bulldoze game pieces, you may or may not be trying to hit them. As long as you did not continue after the trackball you bulldozed or go out of your way to bulldoze it in the first place, I believe that the referees would not give you a penalty as they would see that your objective was not to herd a trackball while possessing another.
