Changing the subject a little, the NFHS only takes one out in this situation. 7-1-1, Penalty 2 (Casebook 7.1.2 Situation H): ... The umpire shall declare the batter who should have batted out (not the improper batter). The improper batter's time at bat is negated and she is returned to the dugout.
I didn't want any of us 'Fed' umpires to rule incorrectly on this.
