a. Homerun stands since the ball became dead on the homerun
Rule 4.6.C.3 - Effect - all runners will be returned to the bases occupied prior to the pitch, B1 is DQ'd and called out.
b. Game is over
There is only one out
c. B1 is an illegal substitute
B1 is an unreported substitute
d. Legal since a pitch was made
This is just wrong
My answer: None of the above...but that is not an option on the test.

An unreported substitute
is an illegal substitute.
Read the EFFECT at the bottom of ASA Rule 4-7-G, "Any infraction of section G2-4 that occurs are governed by the Unreported Substitute rule, Rule 4 Section 6 A-C1-9."
They are treated the same.
