The balls that are returned to play after being scored must come from the pedestal. Human players may take a ball off of a lit pedestal and put it into play (also see G36). That's their main function. The human players not in the driver station inbound balls that go out of play, and can apparently be passed balls from the robots on the field.
I don't have a rule that says it, but I think it was in the broadcast that the field crew returns the balls from being scored to the pedestal. With a minimum of two balls per alliance out of play at all times after auton, having a good cycle there to ensure that there is always a ball on the pedestal should be easy.
