You sure? Playing devil's advocate here, but what rule prevents:
DP stands, B2 is out. Next inning... the last out of the PREVIOUS inning was B2. B3, who has not batted this inning, is up. |
B3 does not bat next in ASA because B3 made an out which stood in the previous inning. Since that out (back end of the double play) stands, B3 loses that turn. You cannot have a scoresheet that both marks an out to that batting spot and then allows it to bat again.
B3 does bat in NFHS and NCAA, because that out is negated in both rule sets.
