My guess is they roll two of the middle ones opposite of each other in order to pinch and pick up balls.

Woahh DeWalt-Cims...cooool :)

As to the rollers in the middle, I think they've got dual side pick up and those rollers in the middle will direct the balls to a central shaft where they are risen by an elevator to their scoring mechanism.

Correct! Our scoring mechanism also uses a dewalt.

The numbers will be on 1 bumper. The "short" sides have the extra noodle to cover the long bumper, if that makes sense. The fabric goes to the embroiderer tomorrow.
