My thoughts on this situation would be.
Situation #1 - Replace the improper batter with the correct batter assuming the count. No batting out of order penalty while the batter is still up to bat. My only question there is - Does the DP position end because the DEFO came up to bat?
Situation #2 - Too late to appeal batting out of order. The appeal must be made before the next legal or illegal pitch. Again same question as above about ending the DP.
