OBR, NCAA and FED have no penalty for not listing subs. OBR and NCAA rules only require the batting order. OBR does also have this:
"4.03(c) As a courtesy, each lineup card presented to the umpire-inchief
should list the fielding positions to be played by each player in the batting order. If a designated hitter is to be used, the lineup card shall designate which hitter is to be the designated hitter. See Rule 5.11(a) (Rule 6.10(b)). As a courtesy, potential substitute players should also be listed, but the failure to list a potential substitute player shall not make such potential substitute player ineligible to enter the game."

I think some leagues have rules about listing subs to confirm legal positions on the club roster.
