What happens in the various scenarios? As I read the rule on playing shorthanded, you can continue to play with one less than you started. So, with DP/DEFO, you can continue with 9, but if you drop to 8, it is a forfeit.
Is this right?
Also, suppose the player you lose is not one of the DP/DEFO pair. Do you continue with DP/DEFO? (i.e. 9 players in the game, but bat only 8?) [/B]

Dakota,
Almost right. If you drop to 7 batters, the game is over. Since the DP can play defense anywhere, you're only seeing the loss of a player offensively (if the DEFO is not the injured/removed player).
