5 major situations when you rotate: (assuming no one goes out)

No one on - multi base hit
R1, batted ball leaves infield...if it's not caught then it drives a rotation
R1, R2 - caught fly ball (if dropped, it's a reverse rotation)
R1, R3 - base hit through the infield
R3 -multi base hit

2nd reverse rotation situation is bases loaded - and batted ball leaves the infield

The reference to "56" may cover all the other permutations....but the key is that when the above situations occur, get thinking about where you may have to go before the pitch is thrown.
