That person (say, #3) can only be used as a CR for the position she CR'd for (say pitcher). The rule does NOT, however, also say that no one else can be used as a CR for that same position later. So if #3 is playing SS later, #45 can be used as CR for the pitcher. (In this case, neither #3 nor #45 could be used as CR's for the catcher at any point during the game).
Also note - in a weird rule quirk. If #3 subs for #11, the pitcher in the 1st inning, and in the 3rd inning, F1-#11 and F2-#17 swap defensive positions, #3 cannot CR for #11(F2) later ... but she can CR for #17(F1).
