Batting Out of Order question
On a test I saw recently, this was one of the questions. NFHS Rules.
The batting order reads: Abel, Baker, Charles, Daniel, Edward, etc.
With no outs it is Abel’s turn to bat but Charles erroneously bats and hits a double.
Abel and Baker both strikeout. It is Charles turn to bat but the defensive team informs the umpire that Charles is on second base.
These are the choices for answers. (Check all the apply) *
__Charles is out.
__Charles remains on second base and the proper batter is daniel.
__Charles is removed from second base and is brought in to bat.
__Abel is out.
__Baker is out.
__No one is out.
In addition to Charles remaining on base,
the correct answer says "No one is out".
Do you know why Abel and Baker would not be out?
