If Batter #4 was out then Batter #3 is declared out (only one out though not two outs) and batter #5 is now up.
This seems confusing to me, I would think Batter #4 should be up again regardless of the result of her at bat, but the way I read ASA 7.2.D.2.Exception that places #5 up next.

These are correct according to ASA rules. The point is that we do not take away outs. Any outs obtained during the incorrect at-bat will be kept, because we should not penalize the defense for the offense's mistake.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!
I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
