It wasn't just the umpire. The Dodgers had the "wrong" lineup card in their dugout.

I wonder what was said, both before the game when the full lineup was presented to the fans, and before Posey came up as the improper batter, by the Public Announcer. I'm guessing the PA also had the "wrong" card.

So, everyone was "wrong" except for the Giants coaching staff.
