No, that is not the rule, COACH!
The rule states:
4.1.D.2
If a team begins play with the required number of players as listed, that team may continue a game with one less player than is currently in the batting order whenever a players leave the game for any reason other than ejection.
Notice it states one less than is currently in the batting order, not one less than the required number to begin the game.
That means if the batting order includes 14 players, one leaves and another is injured to the point of not being able to continue, the game is over.
