What difference does that make? Is there a limitation how many players a high school team may have on its roster? If a team shows up with 25 players in the dugout, do umpires have the wherewithal to tell the coach he/she has to get rid of some of them?

I'm pretty sure the answer to that is No. So like dlsumpntx, I don't even know why you would raise this as an issue.
