What if there are no legal substitutes? Either because the team only has the minimum number of players, or all other legal subs have been used.
Can we invoke 3-3-8 and use a "temporary" runner to finish the inning, then the team goes shorthanded on defense?

The re-entry rule part applies to when the player returns later, and the legal sub part means the entering sub must be a legal one.
If no legal subs, the temporary runner rule applies.
