So in reference to the OP, sorry coach, you have no available substitutes. You're at 8 and have to play shorthanded.

Yeah, most of our leagues have a provision in the rules that if a player misses their turn at bat due to an injury, it's not an out. It encourages safety and allows teams and players to decide what's best for the injured player who has to go to work the next morning. It's rec ball, guys.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!
I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
