FED Rules:
Can the DH re-enter the game if the player he was hitting for already entered the game as an offensive player. What happened was, the fielder ran for the DH, and later in the game the coach wanted to re-enter the DH to hit, then would go to the field. |

For federation rules this is ok. ALL ten or nine starters can leave and reenter once. I believe this is rule 3. NAIA does not allow the reentry rule to apply to pitchers or DH.

Yep, this is perfectly legal. The full cycle is this:
Say the DH is hitting for F9. DH hits safely and F9 comes into pinch run, DH has left the game and DH role is terminated. Since DH was a starter, DH can re-enter. Later in the game, F9 comes to bat, again this is legal since F9 replaced the DH in the batting order. Still later, DH comes into the game to pinch hit for F9, DH has replaced F9 and has re-entered the game. This is the first time out for starter F9, so she can re-enter. When the team goes back out on defense, F9 takes her position on defense, she has replaced the DH who can no longer enter the game, she's done. Finally S1 pinch hits for F9, now F9 is done and S1 must go out on defense or be replaced by S2. Of course all of these changes must be reported to the PU as they happen or you have an unreported substitution, but that's a whole 'nother rule. Hope that helps.

F9 reentering

F9 is a starter on defense, when he replaces the DH as a runner he is just entering the game on offense which terminates the DH role, and takes the DH out of the game for the 1st time.
(P.S. Sorry for the "she" references in my earlier post, I did a softball game today.) |

If you get a chance get a copy of Carl's BRD. It has a good section on DH re-entries and shifts. It's not too bad for FED, but NCAA DH is brutal.
What you describe is legal. If I follow correctly I think the other player could still re-enter for the original DH but it kill the replaced player for the game. |
