Track-Routing Problem Solved
I may have found the reason why I couldn't route tracks through the ball grid array (BGA). Long story short, you've got at least two ways to configure track:
(1) Net Classes
(2) Pre-defined Sizes
Net classes control both track width and track clearance. However...

Pre-defined Sizes only lets you specify track width. I was following option 2 this whole time.
The good thing is that the Design Rule Check (DRC) happens in real time, which works like a guardrail to prevents the user from doing something they'll regret later. For the most part anyway. But from now on, I'm automatically going to reserve a special net class for traces that must pass through these small spaces.
