batting out of turn....

[greymule]

The following batting-out-of-order play is handled differently by OBR, Fed, and ASA softball.

Able on 3B, Baker on 1B, no outs. Charles is supposed to bat, but Daniels bats instead and hits into a 6-4-3 double play. Able scores on the play. If the defense appeals, Charles is out for failing to bat in the proper order, but:

(1) In OBR, Able goes back to 3B, Baker goes back to 1B, and Daniels bats again, with one out.

(2) In Fed, Able goes back to 3B, Baker is out, and Daniels bats again, this time with two outs.

(3) In ASA softball, Baker and Daniels are both out (for three outs), and Able's run of course does not count.

I think NCAA handles it the same as OBR, and I don't know about Little League. Maybe somebody goes "poof!"
