Can the out later be called to "correct" the issue?
Should it be done? What if there were 2 outs when the vacancy was due to bat, but three following batters were allowed to bat and all scored before the defense brings to your attention that you didn't declare the out for the vacancy, and that the inning should have been over 3 batters ago?

What do you do?



What do I do? Treat it as BOO.

If "Abel" is missing, and Baker bats, Baker is BOO. When a pitch is thrown to Charlie, all is right again.
