Ok Mike,
Since you were the only one to answer, consider this slight modification. In the sixth inning, the second batter in the batting order leads off and walks. Now the defensive coach comes out claiming that Team A is BOO since according to his book, DP-Smith should have led off the inning.
What do you tell the coaches in that case?

Guessing that this is the only modification, (and both books match) I would tell the coaches that we have a BOO. DP-Smith is out, and the third batter in the batting order would come to bat (since the second batter is on 1st base). Question to you Sam: Who made the last out in the previous inning? If B8 made the third out, then we have 2 outs (since we should have started the inning with an automatic out). But, if DEFO-Jones made the third out, then we have only 1 out (since nobody protested DEFO-Jones as illegal batter).
Mike??
