Alex. To answer your question, usually every effort is made to make sure that the same umpires can work the game. If not, information is usually shared between the PU of the suspended game and the PU of the make-up to insure that both line-ups and any recorded changes or conferences are on the line-up card of the new official. Just takes a couple of minutes by phone. Then, at the game, the PU can insure that both books reflect the information that he has. If the coach cannot field the same line-up, that will become his problem (though this is rare) and substitutions will be made where necessary.

Thanks Scott. I finally had time to look it up.
See section g in the attached excerpt from the 2007-2008 UIL Softball rules. It states the game shall be re-started from the beginning on district and non-district games unless specified by the district in minutes prior to the season. The rule for playoff games is to continue from where play was suspended.
