My problem is (thanks to YOU!), I no longer think the rules give me that option.
I don't think this is limited to DP/FLEX. Look at 2-57-2b (and the scenario I posted above without DP/FLEX).
Samo, samo. The player
could be BOO, but since she is an unannounced sub in an illegal position in the batting order, NFHS insists on the illegal player penalty and does not allow the coach (or the umpire) to skirt by with the BOO penalty.
I have no idea why, but I would guess it is based on some bad actors in actual games.
