The umpires did acknowledge that in hind sight they booted the call.

Some additional non-relevant info - it was a sub-varsity game (JV), game was not close,
and they were caught off guard with the sudden "miraculous" recovery of the tweaked ankle when it was her turn to bat - the feeling I got from their explanation at the meeting was that due to the game situation(s) mentioned above they felt that since Team A was putting themselves at a disadvantage by going down one fielder on defense and the injured player did not lose a turn at bat (misinterp of "short-handed" rule) they allowed her to bat in the "spirit of play" - (which sometimes conflicts with the more obscure rules and occasionally comes back to bite us)

Neither coach chirped with the ruling (possibly due to lack of any knowledge of the short-handed / player leaving the game rule)

It was a good topic of discussion - especially with our post-season varsity high school tournament(s) just around the corner.

Thanks for your insight and comments
