Here's where "local rec" rules can make things easier. My area everyone can bat.....8, 9, 10, 11 & more. You can even have "listed" subs if your team is 15 players and you only want to bat 12...3 are "listed" subs and follow sub rules. Teams can also can declare we're waiting for a person to show up to be 10 player and that player is listed as 10th in the order. If he doesn't show up in time to bat the first time the team plays with 9 and no auto out. If he shows up later, he's a sub. This also works for COED. You can play with 4 ladies and 5 guys...but lady missing is an out....or you can play with 4 and 4 and no out with a male sub. You can still start with "missing" players and they are listed as 9th and 10th in the order and have to make it before their first scheduled at bat. In COED with male missing or it's NOT an "out" for the rest of the game, female missing, it's an out.........can't give advantage of more men than women unless there's the "out" penalty.......most of the time it's whatever the managers agree to before the game and we play on........we're instructed to get games played cuz that's what the pay for.......works pretty darn good I have to say....I don't even get lineups...city scorekeeper deals with lineup and manager agreements...I just facilitate and explain what they can do......
