But, doesn't the rule say the protest has to be made while the player is still in the game?
Apparently, this one was still in the game, but what if the unreported sub has been replaced by the original player before the other team protests? Is there any penalty?
I don't see how this is different, in principle, from appealing a BOO after the next pitch. Too bad, too late.
Since the rule says, "
The use of an unreported substitute is handled as a protest by the offended team while the player is in the game," why would this be different? Am I reading the rule wrong?
I can't find a case play where the unreported substitute is discovered after he has left the game.
