Your title newump - Make certain you keep your books handy at all times.
Your situation is verbatim from the OBR rule book. here it is
OBR 6.10
The Designated Hitter may be used defensively, continuing to bat in the same position in the batting order, but the pitcher must then bat in the place of the substituted defensive player, unless more than one substitution is made, and the manager then must designate their spots in the batting order.
