Using FED as a baseline - nothing illegal.

It is my understanding that subs don't have to be listed but they are as a courtesy. If this is true, then nothing illegal as Walt said. The player takes the place in the lineup of the one who was in LF for the previous inning. That is how I would handle it.

The only leagues I've had where this would be an issue is certain adult leagues where the managers have to exchange player I.D. cards before the start of the game, insuring that neither team can bring in a ringer. Mexican-American league is one such example. The only people without league I.D. cards allowed to play must be pre-approved by the opposing manager without exception.

By definition a continuous line up has no subs. By rule, he can be added to the end of the line up if he shows up late. If that turn at bat has past, I'm stuck-now you'd be changing the lineup.

I'd say he's a sub and find out for whom he's playing. Although that's another $%$#storm b/c a CL has no subs - you either bat 9 w/ subs, use an EH w/ subs OR bat CL - can't have 11 w/o CL - so where's #12 come from? The more I think about it, he may not be legal in THIS situation.

Unless there is a rule otherwise I would stick him in at 12 in the BO and move on.
