mmmmm,

Remember a couple of points about re-entry. 3.1.4 says that: "The player who was the designated hitter can re-enter as the designated hitter under the re-entry rule." Since George was never DH he cannot re-enter as DH.

Also; "A designated hitter and the player for whom he is batting are locked into the batting order." Therefore if George re-enters he must re-enter in the same slot in the order.

So the 7 hole is up to bat. If coach wants George to hit he must pinch hit George for the DH. Thereafter the DH is terminated per 3.1.4a.
