I should have been more clear in my response. I was answering the question "What's the penalty?" when I indicated "Not covered."

If I thought the coach was trying to get away with something, I'd use the "unsporting behavior" clause. If I thought it was a mistake (JV player brought up, teams use the same uniform styles), I'd just be sure both teams knew.

And, maybe it was just a mistake in the lineup card "1. Abel #21, 2. Baker #21" -- just change Baker's number to whatever he's wearing and go on.
