Pony softball is the only code I'm aware of that allows the batting order to change.
This is only if there is an injury and no legal subs available. In that case the last player removed from the game wil fill the injured players spot. That will usually mean the "emergency" sub will be batting in a different order. (It also requires extra bookeeping by the umpire to keep with the last removed!)
Pony also does not allow the team to play short. If they don't have 9 players to finish, the game is over.
