I didn't forget about that rule, Mike. My argument was that NONE of the effects of 7-2-C come into play UNTIL the appeal. And at the appeal, B4 was not being removed from the base to bat, but was declared out for failing to bat in the proper order.
What you are saying is that 7-2-C-4 comes into play immediately and silently upon the first pitch to B5 and makes B5 legal by merely skipping B4.
I see your point. 7-2-C-4 does not begin with "if the error is discovered" as do 1, 2, and 3. So, it just goes into effect.
My eyes hurt!
