Not in Legion.
In Legion you need 9 to start and 9 to finish
There is No Re-Entry in Senior Legion ball. Senior legion plays by OBR rules EXCEPT they have adopted NCAA's FPSR and No Collision Rule
In Summary: The manager MUST Field 9 Players who are PRESENT. Not "on their way" If the team is unable to field 9 game is Declared a Forfeit and referred to the Legion President
If the Players do show-up, they can come into the game as substitutues but since there is no re-entry those players who are now substituted for are done for that game.
BTW you can download in PDF format the 2008 American Legion Baseball Rules
