Re-entry question
 
Smith is the starting right fielder batting ninth. In the second inning, Jones pinch-hits for Smith and remains in the game on defense. In the fourth inning Russell enters the game defensively for Jones. Is Smith still allowed to re-enter the game as he was the starter?

Rule references are appreciated.

Assuming NFHS, yes. Any starter is allowed to reenter, as long as it's the same spot in the batting order. Doesn't matter how many substitutes have beenin that position in the interim.
