BTW, OBR rules say:

10.01 (b)(2) If the teams change sides before three men are put out, the scorer shall immediately inform the umpire of the mistake.

Granted it doesn't say what to do then, but the implication is that the inning isn't really over and the situation needs to be corrected.
The scorer didn't say squat & at the FED level I'm not there to babysit. As soon as the first pitch was thrown I had my third out. End of story as far as I'm concerned.
