You must have forgotten to use the secret hand shake or your decoder ring has a software glitch.
My copy reads:
4. No runner shall be removed from the base occupied except the batterrunner
who has been taken off the base by the umpire as in (2) above to
bat in the proper place. The correct batter merely misses the turn at bat
with no penalty. The batter following the correct batter in the batting order
becomes the legal batter.
