If we then have an out of order issue, there is no confusion as to who should have been up.

At 10U, I'll tell the player they get to bat first next inning. I will not go to "everyone" to make sure they are on the same page.
At 12U and up, or HS, not only SHOULD they know... but they WILL know - I've yet to have BOO occur in a game like this.
