Situation #1: Team A's coach reports a substitution to the PU. #23 is subbing for #3. The umpire notes the change on his lineup card and reports the change to Team B. #23 walks. Before the next pitch Team B says, "Wait just a minute! #23 was the courtesy runner earlier in this inning. She cannot enter the game on offense in the same half inning. She's an illegal substitute!"
Ruling?

Illegal player. DQed and declared out. ASA 8-10-D, G, and ASA 4-6-E-EFFECT-b. And the PU should be ashamed of himself.

Situation #2: Team A sends #18 to bat for #3. #18 has not yet made an appearance in the game. The substitution is *not* reported to the umpire. #18 walks. Before the next pitch Team B says, "Wait just a minute! Who's that on 1st? Was she reported as a substitute?"
Ruling?

Same, except it is an unreported subsituted, and no need for the PU being ashamed. ASA 4-6-B-EXCEPTION-1.
