So one can't use a DP and an EP. Since they are using an EP, I'm assuming this is slow pitch and they couldn't use a DP. As such, everyone is required to bat. If they've got 11 people on the lineup then we had a legal lineup even if we didn't have a legal line up card specifying it. Any of the 10 can play defense and they all must bat. It's too late to do anything if someone was skipped because they didn't understand that. 9 batted last so 10 is the correct batter.
Now if it were fast pitch, then they can't use an EP. In that case, they have too many players on the lineup. Only 9 people should be batting. Fixing this is a mess. If I had to offer an opinion on the field, the 11th batter is not in the game. If she's been playing defense tell the coach to stop that. The first 10 are legal with the 3rd batter being relisted in the 10 spot. The 8th batter just batted so the 9th batter is due up (and is up) so we keep playing. The 11th batter is an eligible substitute. And now we have a legal lineup card.
