IMHO... if he listed the substitutes on the line-up card as, for example, #4-Mary & #11-Sue, and the numbers were correct, then if he gave you substitutions based on those numbers, he is responsible if he got them mixed up... even if mixed up honestly.
If the subs were not listed on the line-up card, and if you took the sub by number without asking for the name, then shame on you. I'll let you figure out how to get yourself out of the jam you just got in. (I think you would have to assume the number to be right and rule batting out of order.)
If the coach had the numbers and names of the subs listed on the card, but he had the wrong number with the wrong name, then as long as the named player is in the proper slot, the mistake on the numbering is just corrected in the scorebooks and on your score card with no penalty.
