Always a good question!! Always worth reviewing. Remember, many get confused with improper batter and batter not announced. So don't. Different subject, but very close and usually confusing also.

Improper batter is only proper when he/she gets a hit/walk and another pitch is made.

All other scenarios have been covered, but one of once the improper batter is legal, who is the proper batter now? It is the batter who usually follows the improper batter in the proper order.

Just hope it doesn't happen. If it does and you notice it, hope no one else does. Take time out to brush plate. Throw a new ball into the pitcher to get your mind straight in case it is brought up.

Remember, still at bat, switch as if nothing has happened. On base, nullify everything if found before next pitch/play.
