This situation was posed to me today. Seems simple to me, but there is a lot of confusion to some. FED game.

Score is 1-0 home winning in top of 7th inning with 2 outs,S1 enters game to bat in 5th position for Jones #10,but fails to report. R1 on 1st advances to 3rd on 2 wild pitches during S1's time at bat. S1 advances to 1st on dropped 3rd strike and R1 scores on play. Before the next pitch,opposing coach appeals unreported S1. U1 says S1 is now a legal player and asks coach who S1 was batting for. Coach says #6 Smith , Smith is batting 6th on lineup card. Opposing coach now appeals batting out of order. U1 calls S1 out ending the ball game 1-0 home team as run is canceled.Was U1 correct?


I think we just have an unreported S1 legally batting for Jones in the 5 hole.
