The OP's scenario nearly dupicates NFHS casebook play 3.3.6 Situation E:
Team A is using 10 players in its lineup with DP-L. Jones batting third. FLEX B. Smith is playing right field and is a very fast runner. In the first, third, and sixth innings, DP-L. Jones gets on base and, in each case, the FLEX-B. Smith is put in to run. Legal?
Ruling: It is legal for the defensive position player (FLEX) to do this since she never left the game. However, it would be illegal for the starting DP-L. Jones to return to bat in the sixth inning. This is a violation of the re-entry rule.
