BOO and Intentional Walk -FED Rules
 
A few weekends ago I was working a U14 tournament. Not sure of outs, a player is discovered batting out of order with a 2-0 count. Defensive team calls time to confer with the other team's scorekeeper and my lineup cards, and it s found they are batting out of order. Defensive team wants an out (the coach later told me he didn't even know the rule on that), I tell them that the wrong batter is replaced with the correct batter, and receives the 2-0 count.

After this happened, I heard one of the defensive coaches say to another that next time we will intentionally walk the batter, and then appeal that he was batting out of order. My question is, if they intentionally walk the batter and force R1 to move to second, then successfully appeal the BOO, does R2 go back to R1? Or do all actions on that play stand?

aschramm,

In your scenario, since the BOOT was properly appealed, the R1 would be returned to 1B since he was "forced" by the improper batter's base on balls.

The only things that stand are outs made, and that's only in FED.
