SITUATION:
At the pre-game conference, lineups for both teams are accepted as official. The visitors have a DP hitting for their FLEX who's pitching. Before the end of the pregame conference, but after the lineups have been accepted as official, the visiting manager indicates she wishes to bring her DP in to play defense as pitcher. If the DP (who's now the pitcher) reaches base in the 1st inning, is she allowed a courtesy runner?

Yes, when the DP is reported as the pitcher, she becomes the listed pitcher, which is the requirement in the top of the first.
The only constraint is facing one batter in the bottom of the inning.
What is the "other side"?
