"What is the penalty if he exceeds them."
Injured or incapacitated pitcher can't return if his replacement REQUIRES more than 8 pitches.
If a normal pitcher's replacement takes more pitches than 8 I think you are suppose to authorize them. If you do authorize is the penalty no reentry of the replaced F1? What you do if he just keeps throwing I don't know. The few times this happened I told the opposing coach the leaving pitcher was burned as a pitcher. That satisfied them but there is a little ambiguity in this FED sit.
