When the proper batter (Able) is on base his spot is "skipped" and the next batter (Baker) comes to the plate.
I agree that the only two options are "bring him back and do it over" or "leave it as it is". I'd choose the former, if I could undo whatever had been done. If Baker gets a hit on one of the first pitches, or runners advance, or are put out, .... then I'd be more likely to let it stand.
We've had similar discussions, with similar answers, when R2 mistakenly becomes R3 after a TO to talk with the third base coach.
