Irish provided the ASA rule....which is in effect for championship play.
Your league chooses to play by modified rules, which is their right to do.
Here is what we do in a City Rec co-Ed league I work with:
Teams may start a game with either 8 or 9 players, minimum of 4 females.
If playing with 9 you may play 5 males and 4 females or 5 females and 4 males.
Teams may bat up to 12 players and we use a "rolling" batting order.
Our lineup cards have two sections, Male batters 1-6 and female batters 1-6.
The batting order becomes:
Male 1
Female 1
Male 2
Female 2
Etc....
In the cases where the number of males and females are not equal, the actual order of the players batting would not be the same throughout the game, but the alternating male-female is preserved. Seems to work for our league.
