(OBR) R2 and the DH is at bat. The coach comes to me and asks to make the following substitution. He wants to put the pitcher in to pinch run for R2. He calls it a double switch: he says his pitcher will become CF when they go out on the field again, the DH will become the pitcher.
I did not allow this substitution on the basis that the pitcher should pinch hit (or pinch run) only for the DH.
Was I correct?
Another question that came up in discussions after the game. Can a double switch be made on offense as well as defense?
