After the substitution, but prior to a pitch to the next batter, the defense realizes that Jones should not have batted in the sixth and points it out to you, the PU What do you rule?
Speaking ASA

Jones is out and disqualified and move any runners which may have advanced back to the base they occupied at the TOP.

Along the same lines, you see DP-jones approaching the batter's box in the sixth inning do you
  • a. wait for her to get into the box, then call her out, or
  • b. stop her before she gets into the box and tell the coach that she has already used up her one re-entry and he needs to get someone else to take her place

I'm walking over to the coach and asking if they have a change for me. If yes, then I'm going to ask if Jones hasn't already left the game twice. If they cannot get the hint from that, oh well. BTW, I will probably have this conversation with the line-up card in hand.
