Per both NFHS and ASA, any time the Flex bats without going into the DP slot, it's an illegal sub, and not BOO. Penalize accordingly.

In this case, Flex illegally batted for B1. Then we have the additional issue of B1 batting out of turn when B2 was due up. Again, penalize accordingly.
MD, I like your explanation. So when NFHS says that illegal substitution supersedes BOO, it is talking about the illegal sub player, not the batter who follows the illegal sub. So as you say, the batter (B1) who follows the illegal sub would be out of order. So if appealed correctly, B2 would be declared out and B3 would be up? Dave
