Not trying to be thick-headed, but in my mind I read how a violation is
handled as meaning that the umpire cannot
rule on the unreported substitute unless the offended team protests.
In other words, if I had let this batter bat and get on base, I could not call her out myself before the next pitch for being unreported. The defense would have had to protest the violation.
That really doesn't prevent me from going to the coach and letting him/her know I detected something amiss, in my opinion.
