Apparently, at the plate meeting, they made some sort of change that I still don't understand. But in the end, the player listed in the 10th spot never batted and never played the field. It was as if they were batting a straight 9.
The sports information director from the school in question tried to explain it to me, but I still never quite understood it. Any idea how this works?

It sounds to me like they simply got the terms screwed up. They put the DP where the FLEX was supposed to be and FLEX where the DP was supposed to be.
