NFHS Rules, Designated Hitter Rule
I am interested in how this situation should be handled in a game being played using NFHS Baseball Rules.
Home Team has ten (10) players. Team H has the DH batter for the player in the third (3rd) spot in the batting order. The player in the sixth (6th) spot of the batting order is injured in the top of the second (2nd) inning and can not continue to play.
Is this a situation where the player who is the DH enters the game to play defense and thereby takes a spot in the batting order other that the third spot?
Ladies and gentlemen, answers please.
MTD, Sr.
